Old Novgorodian

Etymology

First attested in c. 1050‒1075. Borrowed from Baltic languages, cf. Latvian nuõma (“tax, quitrent”), Lithuanian núoma (“rent, lease, hire”), ultimately from Proto-Balto-Slavic *nṓmāˀ, from Proto-Indo-European *nṓm-eh₂, from *nem- (“to give, to take”).[1] Baltic borrowings are also Livonian núom, Estonian nuum (“rent, lease”). Compare related Lithuanian núomoti, Latvian nuõmât, nuõmuôt (“to rent out; to hire”), further Latvian ņemt (“to take”), Proto-Germanic *nemaną (“to take”), Ancient Greek νέμω (némō, “to dispense, distribute”). PIE root *nōm- with a long vowel, a variant of *nem-, is confirmed by Ancient Greek νωμάω (nōmáō, “to deal out, distribute”).[2][3]

If the assumption about the Baltic borrowing is correct, then it occurred in the oldest period, when Proto-Balto-Slavic *ō had not yet turned into uo.[4] Since when borrowing East Baltic uo into Slavic it is reflected as у (u) or о (o). Another possibility is that наме (name) is the original inherited Proto-Slavic *nàmъ < Proto-Balto-Slavic *nṓmas, from Proto-Indo-European *nṓm-os.[3]
