In summary

From Middle High German houbet, höubet, from Old High German houbit, from Proto-West Germanic *haubud, from Proto-Germanic *haubudą, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *káput. The standardized form without umlaut is from Upper German, in which -ou- did not undergo umlaut before labials. The Central German form with umlaut is preserved in Häuptling and zu Häupten. Cognate with Dutch hoofd, German Low German Hööft, Häuft, Saterland Frisian Hööft, English head, Danish hoved, Gothic 𐌷𐌰𐌿𐌱𐌹𐌸 (haubiþ).
