Traditionally derived from the same stem as adît (“to knit”) (with an extra -at): Proto-Baltic *ad-, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁edʰ-, *h₁odʰ- (“pointed, sharp”); Derksen finds the derivation semantically attractive, but is skeptical of it in relation to Latin ebulum (“dwarf-elder, danewort”). Cognates include Lithuanian ãdata.
