In summary

Inherited from Old Galician-Portuguese irmão (“brother”), from Latin germānus (“brother”), from the adjective germānus (“of true siblings”), from germen (“sprout, bud”), from Proto-Indo-European *ǵénh₁mn̥ (“offspring, seed”), from *ǵenh₁- (“to beget, to give birth”). Cognates include Galician irmán, Mirandese armano, Asturian hermanu, and Spanish hermano. Doublet of germano, a learned borrowing, and hermano, a borrowing from Spanish.
