Etymology 1

From Middle High German or Middle Low German tūten.[1] The verb is either an independent onomatopoeic formation or derived, with an irregular treatment of the initial consonant, from Proto-Germanic *þeutaną (“to howl”), which is the source of Old Norse þjóta, Swedish tjuta, Old English þēotan, Old High German diozan.

Cognate with Dutch tuiten, toeten. Swedish tuta and German tuten are borrowed from Low German, and English toot is borrowed from Dutch.
