So common ending -dy stands for -ellus, and -ody for -ulus, diminuitive forms often used in medieval latin. Interestingly, -ody is very rarely used in bathing section, so this gives us at least three(!) authors

I think it's very unlikely that such a large proportion of words in a manuscript with several differently themed sections would all end in -ellus.

In fact, since you referenced medieval Latin abbreviations, if it were such, then -dy has many possible interpretations, including -bz (-bus) or -rum or even a category designation as it was done in Hildegard von Bingen's code, but... what is important to remember is that even if the VMS includes Latin-based glyphs or even Latin scribal conventions, it doesn't necessarily mean it's Latin (the conventions could be used to mean something else and were also used to mean other things in other languages even when the same symbols were used).
