asto

Basque

Alternative forms

Etymology

Uncertain. At least two proposals exist:

  1. from Spanish asno or Latin asinus, although phonetically improbable;
  2. from hartz (“bear”) +‎ -to (diminutive suffix), phonetically impeccable, but semantically strange.

If the second is correct, then may be related to Aquitanian *asto, found in *Asto-ilunno.[1][2]
