I imagine -is, -idos the femininizer must have been at least synchronically identical with -is, -idos the feminine patronymic ending.

>ÂGreek had a third declension feminine suffix -is, with a long stem in the genitive case -idos. The word teuthis was formed from teuthos, it seems, with a feminine ending to indicate a smaller size.

I wonder if that is the same underlying -id- that appears in patronymics (whence the Latinized family suffix -idae) and double diminutives (ther > therion > theridion).
