In summary

Inherited from Middle French boudin, from Old French boudin, of uncertain origin. Possibly from a root *bod- (“swollen”), possibly from Germanic, from Proto-Indo-European *bed- (“to swell”) (Pok. 96), from *bʰew- (“to swell”) (Pok. 98-102). This would suggest a connection with Proto-Germanic *paddǭ (“toad”). The derivation from Vulgar *botellinus, from botellus (“small sausage”), the diminutive form of botulus (“sausage, black pudding; intestine”) is disputed on phonological grounds; as the outcome of botellus is Old French boel (> modern boyau), this may instead require a Vulgar Latin *bolet(t)inus for boudin.
