In summary

Uncertain, probably related to lauw (“lukewarm”); compare English luke and lukewarm. The earliest attestations refer to the sense of "lukewarm", other senses are later semantic developments. The sense "calm, level-headed" is still visible in some derived terms, such as leukweg, leukjes and doodleuk.
