Etymology
1. From Old Swedish *valmoghe, from Old Norse *valmogi, comprised of:
2. * First part vall- is of uncertain origin; Kroonen interprets the compound to mean "lily of the valley," thus connecting Latin vallis. Pokorny instead suggests Proto-Indo-European *leb- (“to hang down loosely”) (compare the Nordic name Valbjørn). Or, possibly instead from the root of English welk, German welken (“to wither, decay”) (compare Proto-Germanic *wulkną).
3. * The second part is from *mogi, from Proto-Germanic *mōhô (“poppy”).
4. Cognate with Danish valmue; also German Mohn, Ancient Greek μήκων (mḗkōn) (Doric μάκων (mákōn)) and Church Slavonic макъ (makŭ) (Bulgarian, Russian, Serbo-Croatian мак). See: Old Norse Nouns '
*valmogi', Latin Nouns '
vallis', English Nouns '
welk', Danish Nouns '
valmue'.
