Where this word comes from

Directly or via Ancient Greek Βουίαιμον (Bouíaimon), rendering Proto-Germanic *baiaz (“one of the Boii”) + *haimaz (“home”), designating the area abandoned by the Boii c. 60 BCE and settled by the Germanic Marcomanni shortly thereafter, now German Böhmen. The tribal name, Latin Bo(i)ī, is probably Gaulish *bouios (“cattle owner”), a relative adjective from Proto-Celtic *bāus (“ox, cow”), which continues Proto-Indo-European *gʷṓws (“cattle”), or less likely *bʰeyh₂- (“to strike, hit”). Related to Bavaria. First attested in Velleius (19 BC – c. AD 31).
