Where this word comes from

Unknown. Many have claimed the word to be from Latin bellula (“weasel”) due to the creature being mischievous, however, this word is unattested in Latin with this meaning, as well as in Iberia. Crespo Pozo suggests Latin apis (“bee”) + lūdere (“to play”) as a meaning of a restless, annoying little devil.
