Where this word comes from
Attested as early as 768 as castro Caleppio. Likely from a rare Roman personal name, Latin Calepius, Callepius. The origin of that name is uncertain; possibly from a word derived from Proto-Indo-European *kal- (“hard”). This could have been through a Celtic language such as Gaulish: in Gaulish there is epos callion (“colt's hoof”), from Proto-Celtic *kalio-, explored by Pokorny and connected to Old Church Slavonic калити (kaliti, “to harden, cool”), Sanskrit कलिका (kalikā, “bud”), etc.
