köken: From Middle High German gelücke (12th century), at first along the Lower and Middle Rhine. Probably borrowed from Old Dutch *gilukki as part of the Flemish knight culture; compare Middle Dutch gelucke (1240), whence modern Dutch geluk. (The fact that the word is attested in High German before Dutch must be disregarded in view of the minimal attestation of Old Dutch as a whole.) Further origin…

köken: Inherited from Old Czech sčěstie, from Proto-Slavic *sъčęstьje, essentially “good fate”, “good portion”, derived as *sъ- (“good”) + *čęstь (“piece, part”) + *-ьje. First attested in the 14th century.

köken: Related to Latvian laime, Old Prussian laeims (laims, “rich”), with further origin disputed: * Per Fraenkel, from the same root as léisti (“to allow”). The verbal form is attested with a now-rare meaning of "to create", which Fraenkel uses to bolster his argument. * Per Smoczynski, from a secondary o-grade of lémti (“to determine”). It is worth noting that the root underlying this word also…
happiness (mental and emotional state denoting harmony with the internal and external worlds; the quality of one who is happy) · (good) luck, (good) fortune, chance (an accidental set of favorable circumstances) · luck, fate (a traditional form of divination, typical of New Year, based on the shapes made by molten metal — lead, tin — in water)
köken: From the same Proto-Indo-European stem as the verb laist (“to let, to allow”) (q.v.): *laid-mē > laime. The verb laist can also mean “to give, to grant,” which would suggest for laime the original meaning of “given, granted (thing),” which could be either positive or negative, i.e., “fate,” a meaning with which laime can be found in folk songs and tales, and in occasional modern phrases like laba…
köken: Borrowed from Middle Low German lucke, gelucke of uncertain ultimate origin, but perhaps related to Proto-West Germanic *lok (“shutter, lock”). Cognate with Faroese lukka, Norwegian Nynorsk lukke, Danish lykke, dialectal Swedish lycka. More at luck.
