The earliest attested meaning is "ship's keel", though whether the original meaning was "keel" or "walnut shell" is unclear. The further origin is disputed: Borrowed from a European substrate, whence also the Welsh and Greek terms. Alternatively, borrowed from Greek, itself borrowed from said substrate. From a Proto-Indo-European *ker- (“hard”), and compared further to cancer (“crab”). From Proto-Indo-European *ḱerh₂- (“head, top”).
