Meaning & usage
a village and former municipality of West Betuwe, Gelderland, Netherlands
Where this word comes from
First attested with certainty as haften around 1160. Potentially derived from the dative plural form of Proto-Germanic *haftaz (“tie, shackle”), in this case referring to the heavy clay soil around the village. An etymological relationship to the verb hechten (“stitch”) or German haften (“stick”) is less likely.
