köken: From Old Swedish bliūgher, blȳgher, from Old Norse *bljúgr. Cognate with Danish bly, Norwegian blyg, Icelandic bljúgur, Old High German blūgo (from Proto-Germanic *bleuga-, *blūga-, “shyly”), Middle Low German blūc, bliuc and dialectal German blug, plug, blaug. Probably ultimately related to blöt (“wet”), from Proto-Germanic *blautaz.
