==Latin==
===Alternative forms===
* cunus
===Etymology===
Uncertain. Various theories include:
* Proto-Indo-European *gʷḗn "woman", whence it would be cognate with Mycenaean Greek 𐀓𐀙𐀊 (ku-na-ja), Old English cwene, Common Slavic žena|*žena, Sanskrit जनि (jani);
* Proto-Indo-European *kut-nos "cover", cognate with cutis "skin". The metaphor is identical to the one connecting Latin vulva and English hull, albeit from a different IE root.
* Other theoretic relation is to Latin cuneus "wedge".
