Pronounced as (IPA)

[ˈpa.we.oː]

Uncertain. Perhaps related to Proto-Celtic *oβnus, which itself may attest to a Proto-Indo-European form *pow-. The stem *pav- would emerge from the Italic change of Proto-Indo-European *-ow- to *-aw-. Alternatively, it may be a stative from the root *peh₂w- (“to strike”), whence Latin paviō.
