Etymology
1. From Old Swedish padda, from Old Norse padda. Of uncertain origin, but possibly from Proto-Indo-European *bed- (“to swell”) (Pok. 96), from Proto-Indo-European *bʰew- (“to swell”) (Pok. 98-102), which would indicate a Proto-Germanic *paddǭ. Cognate with Icelandic padda, Danish padde.
2. Compare English puddle, Old English puduc (“swelling, lump, growth, wart”), Low German puddig (“swollen”). See: Old Norse Nouns '
padda', Icelandic Nouns '
