Where this word comes from
From Middle French homard, hommars, houmar (all 16th c.), probably via Middle Low German hummer from Old Norse humarr (“lobster”), from Proto-Germanic *humaraz. A direct borrowing from Scandinavian is less likely regarding the late attestation. Dutch hommer dates from the 19th century and cannot have been the source. Cognate with German Hummer, Middle English hemroll, all “lobster”.
