köken: Synchronously, туңдыр- (tuñdır-, “to freeze”) + -ма (-ma, suffix forming an abstract noun related to the action's process or result). Apparently calqued from Ottoman Turkish طوڭدرمه (toñdïrma, “ice cream”). Cognate with Kyrgyz тоңдурма (toŋdurma), Southern Altai тоҥдырма (toŋdïrma), Azerbaijani dondurma, Turkish dondurma, Turkmen doňdurma, etc.
köken: From the stem παγ- (pag-) of πάγος (págos, “ice”) (from the same root as Greek πήγνυμι (pígnymi, “to fasten, freeze”)) and the suffix -ωτό (-otó), cf. -ωτός (-otós).
köken: jäätää (“to freeze”) + -lö or possibly through dialectal jäädellä (“to (slowly) freeze”), thus equivalent to jäätää + -ellä + -ö. Coined by Finnish physician and philologist Elias Lönnrot in 1874.
