Teleiša

Cf. Teleiš, Telei̇̃šis (see). Perhaps the root tel- is connected with lit. tẽlias „veršis, teliukas“ ¹, tẽlis „veršis“ ² or similar. Although maybe it's a distorted surn. *Toleišis, *To-leisha or similar. Then cf. Tolei̇̃kis (see).♦ Probably from lit. telei̇̃this „ištižėlis, apsileidėlis; riebulis“ (LKŽe).
