Where this word comes from

First attested as in stepele in 1450. Compound of an unclear first element and lo (“light forest”). One hypothesis interprets the first element as a derivation of Proto-Germanic *stapula (“pole, stick”). Alternative etymologies include a reading of the first element as a term cognate to Old English stêpel (“high tower”) or as Latin stipula (“stalk, reed”). Compare Stipdonk, Stiphout and Stiepel.
