From poltro (“lazy, cowardly”), from poltro ("couch, bed"; compare Lombard polter (“couch”), Venetan poltrona (“couch”)), ultimately from Lombardic polstar (“cushion, pillow”), from Proto-West Germanic *bolstr (“cushion, pillow”) + -one. Cognate with Old High German polstar (“bolster”), English bolster.
