In summary

From Middle Dutch elft, possibly from an Old Dutch *alvit, from Proto-West Germanic *albut (“swan”). The semantic link to swans would be the fish's white color; the Germanic term ultimately derives from Proto-Indo-European *albʰós (“white”). This Indo-European word is generally accepted to be the most likely origin of this word, even if elft were found not to derive directly from Germanic *albits but to have entered the language through some other route.
