In summary

From Middle High German rīm m (“rhyme”). In form probably inherited from Old High German rīm m (“number, count, series”), from Proto-West Germanic *rīm, from Proto-Germanic *rīmą. However, the sense follows Old French rime f (“rhyme”), whose origin is uncertain: either from the same Germanic noun or from Latin rhythmus. In the latter case, a doublet of Rhythmus.
