Trivia

 * 'Mallus' could be a misspelling of 'malus', a Latin word meaning 'evil', 'misfortune' and 'injury'. 'Funo' is the ablative of 'funis' which means 'rope' or 'cord.' This would translate, then, as 'evil by rope.'
 * An alternative is that the phrase is an ablative absolute and 'mallus' is a form of the verb 'malo,' 'to prefer.' That would make the translation 'rope having been chosen' or 'when rope was chosen.'  Since neither of these seem to make much sense one is just as good as the other.
 * Malo has a second definition: to be more favorable to. This would mean that his name would become 'To be more favorable to rope, cord, etc.' This, again does not make much sense. 'Mallus' could also be 'malleus' meaning a hammer, mallet or poleaxe. The name would then become: 'A hammer/mallet/poleaxe of rope/cord.' 'Mallus' could also be a shortened form of maleolus meaning fire dart. These names still make no sense, so there could be a problem in the translaton.
