The name ''Celabrian'' comes from the tribal name ''Celabrii'' (Greek: Κελάβριοι), from Proto-Celabrian ''kelabrias'' "of a warrior", which is derived from ''kelabēr'' "warrior" (literally "spear-bearer"), from ''kelas'' "spear" (< PIE ''*gʷelH-'' "to throw, pierce") + ''-bēr'' "bearer" (< PIE ''*bʰer-'' "to bear, carry").
The name ''Celabrian'' comes from the tribal name ''Celabrii'' (Greek: Κελάβριοι) < Proto-Celabrian ''kelabrias'' "of a warrior" < ''kelabēr'' "warrior" (Modern Celabrian ''č̣ałăvr'' [ˈt͡ʃʼaɫəvɾ]) < ''kelas'' "spear" (< PIE ''*gʷelH-'' "to throw, pierce"; Modern Celabrian ''č̣ał'' [t͡ʃʼaɫ] "weapon") + ''-bēr'' "bearer" (< PIE ''*bʰer-'' "to bear, carry").


The endonym '''''girṭeʒ''''' comes from '''''gir''''' "Celabrian" (< PIE ''*wiHrós'' "man, warrior") + '''''ṭeʒ''''' "language" (< PIE ''*dn̥ǵʰwéh₂s'' "tongue"). The formal language is known as '''''bonṭeʒ''''' [ˈbontʼɛd͡z], from '''''bon''''' "clear, eloquent" (< PIE ''*bʰeh₂-'' "to shine; to speak"). The classical language is known as '''''akrăṭeʒ''''' [ˈakʰɾətʼɛd͡z] (Classical Celabrian: '''''akʰra tanci''''' [ˈakʰɾa ˈtant͡si]), from '''''akr''''' "precise" (< PIE ''*h₂ḱrós'' "sharp"). The colloquial language is known as '''''łødṭeʒ''''' [ˈɫœtʼːɛd͡z], from '''''łød''''' "masses, common folk" (< PIE ''*h₁léwdʰis'' "people").
