Etymology
From Proto-Finnic *vapras (compare Estonian vapper, Karelian vabras, Võro vabras), probably originally meaning "lively, brisk, breezy, healthy", possibly borrowed from Proto-Germanic *wabraz (no exact Germanic descendants are known, but it would be from the same root that gave Old Norse vafra).[1]
