Etymology

From Proto-West Germanic *halh, probably from Proto-Germanic *halhaz, either from Proto-Indo-European *klHk(ᵂ)-(n)-, related to Serbo-Croatian kuk (“thigh, hip”), Bulgarian кълка (kălka, “hip”), Russian колк (kolk, “bony stump”), Latvian kulksnis (“hock”), Lithuanian kulksnis (“ankle”), Old Prussian culczi (“hip”), or from Proto-Indo-European root *(s)kel- (“to bend”) (and if so related to Old Norse hallr (“slope, incline”), from Proto-Germanic *halluz), both of which are suggested roots cognate with Latin calx (“heel”). See: Bulgarian Nouns 'кълка', Old Norse Nouns 'hallr', Latin Nouns 'calx'.
