Here's my original question-
What does the Latin abbreviation Vt. mean when it precedes a name?
I don't see how that's substantially different than the most recent
rephrasing of exactly the same sentence. The only further information
is that its on an inscription. Which does not seem to add any important
information.

Why would it be a critical apparatus if it preceded a name- as was
indicated in the original posting?
