Etymology

From Middle High German blüete, from older bluot, from Old High German bluot, from Proto-Germanic *blōdiz (“blossom, sprout”). Middle High German bluot was originally a feminine inflecting to blüete in the plural and genitive/dative singular; later this alternation was levelled either by generalizing the form blüete or by converting bluot into a masculine. Related with blühen and Blume. Cognate with Old English blēd (“shoot, flower”), dialectal English blead, which see.
