Etymology 2 edit
From Proto-Slavic *vila, probably akin to Bulgarian ви́хър (víhǎr, “gale, wind torrent”), вие́лица (viélica, “blizzard”).
Another hypothesis (per Vasmer) relates the word to Proto-Indo-European *weh₁y- (“to chase, to pursue”), presumably with an original meaning prosecutor, haunter.
