köken: Akin to Laz მალაღუდე (malağude), მალაღური (malağuri), Mingrelian მალაღური (malaɣuri). Probably a derivative of ლეღვი (leɣvi, “fig”) (itself umlauted from an earlier *ლაღვ- (*laɣv-)) due to bird's fondness of eating figs: compare dialectal მე-ლეღვ-ია (me-leɣv-ia, “golden oriole”), Laz მა-ლუღ-ე (ma-luğ-e), Mingrelian მა-ლუღ-ია (ma-luɣ-ia), all of which are transparently derived from fig.…
From the Ancient Greek ἴκτερος (íkteros, “jaundice”, “a bird of a yellowish-green colour, perhaps the golden oriole”), of uncertain ultimate origin; possibly related to ἴκτις (íktis, “weasel”), ἴκτινος (íktinos), or of Pre-Greek origin.
