Reconstruction:Proto-Slavic/okunь
Proto-Slavic
editEtymology
editMost likely from *ȍko (“eye”) + *-unь, originally meaning “fish with big eyes”.
Compare with Komi-Zyrian öкыш (ökyš, “perch”), Komi-Permyak ёкыш (jokyš), ёкуш (jokuš), еки (jeki), іокыш (iokyš), which are possibly borrowed from East Slavic (compare the Russian diminutive form окушо́к (okušók)).
