köken: Inherited from Middle High German kemel, kemmel, kembel, borrowed during the Crusades from Byzantine Greek κάμηλος (kámēlos), probably in part also from Arabic جَمَل (jamal), which best explains the e-vocalism (as Arabic a is [æ] or even [ɛ] in this word).

köken: Inherited from Proto-Slavic *velьb(l)ǫdъ, *vъlьb(l)ǫdъ, from Gothic 𐌿𐌻𐌱𐌰𐌽𐌳𐌿𐍃 (ulbandus), from Latin elephantus, from Ancient Greek ἐλέφας (eléphas). The humorous meaning from reanalysis as wielki (“large, giant”) + błąd (“error, mistake”).
köken: Inherited from Old Hindi ऊंट (ūṃṭa), from ऊट (ūṭa) with spontaneous nasalization, from Sauraseni Prakrit उट्ट (uṭṭa), from Sanskrit उष्ट्र (uṣṭra, “camel”), from Proto-Indo-Iranian *úštras (“camel, buffalo”). Doublet of उष्ट्र (uṣṭra). Cognate with Marathi उंट (uṇṭa) and Nepali उँट (ũṭ).
köken: From Proto-Semitic *gamal- through an unclear number of intermediate languages, see etymology section of camel for details. First appearance in a Finnish text in Mikael Agricola's translation of the Bible from 1548 in the form "Cameli".
