Etymology

From Middle English flawme, blend of Old French flame and flambe, flamble, the first from Latinski flamma, the second from Latinski flammula, diminutive of flamma, both from pre-Latin *fladma; Proto-Italic *flagmā, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *bʰel- (“to shimmer, gleam, shine”). Displaced native Old English līeġ.
