Proto-West Germanic
Etymology
Unknown; presumably related to Old Norse falma (“to grope, feel; to be astonished”), perhaps from Proto-Germanic *fōlijaną,[1][2] secondary causative of strong verb *falaną, perhaps from either Proto-Indo-European *pólh₁-e ~ *pl̥h₁-ḗr or *ph₁l-é-ti, from *pelh₁- (“to stroke”). Possibly cognate with Latin palpō (“to stroke, soothe”), Ancient Greek πάλλω (pállō, “to sway, swing”), ψηλᾰφᾰ́ω (psēlapháō, “to feel, grope for”).[3]
