Do you mean nominalizations that are reconstructable as a whole word
(i.e. including the suffix and all word formation details) into
Proto-Celtic or Indo-European, or do you only mean agent noun formations
that HAVE an etymology, but may formed in the individual languages at
any time, perhaps with suffixes that have come into being only in the
individual languages, but are not inherited???
