Etymology
From Middle French ballon from Northern Italian bal(l)one (compare Italian pallone (“large ball”)) from palla (“ball”), from Lombardic *palla (“ball”), perhaps influenced by the earlier Northern Italian balla, from Old French balle, from Frankish balla, both from Proto-Germanic *ballô (“ball”), *balluz, from Proto-Indo-European *bholn- (“bubble”), from Proto-Indo-European *bhel- (“to blow, swell, inflate”). Akin to Old High German ballo, bal (“ball”) (German Ballen (“bale”); Ball (“ball”)). More at ball.
