Etymology

[edit]

From Old Swedish læpper, of uncertain origin. Perhaps from Old Norse *lep(p)r, derived from Proto-Germanic *lipn-, *lepn-, syncopated oblique forms of Proto-Germanic *lepô (lip), from Proto-Indo-European *leb- (lip). Alternatively, perhaps from Old Norse *lepr, from Proto-Germanic *lepaz (lip), from the same Indo-European source. Related to dialectal Swedish läpe, from Old Swedish læpi, lepe, from Old Norse *lepi, from Proto-Germanic *lepô (lip).
