aran

Of uncertain and disputed origin. Some relate this word to an Ibero-Romance source, testified also by Aragonese arañón, Catalan aranyó, Spanish arándano, all of which presuppose an unattested Vulgar Latin *agraniō. Others see a Celtic origin behind this term: compare Irish airne, Welsh eirin, which instead requires Proto-Celtic *agrinyā.
