Etymology 1
From a Germanic word tram meaning "log", "beam", or "timber", thrams ("beam") in the Gothic Bible. Related to Ancient Greek θράμβη ("beam") from which Latin trabs derives. Cognates include German tram, Czech tram, Polish tram, Scottish tram ("log", "beam" or "shaft"), German trämel ("lever", "pole" or "stick"),

or 'shaft', with various related terms in Germanic languages meaning wheelbarrow handle, ladder rung, step of a chair, etc.

Early horse shackles were literally made from logs or beams, so the etymology of this sense is comparable to the etymology of clog or stocks, or the French "entraves" or Spanish "trabas" which derive from Latin trabs ("log" or "beam").

Related to trabs, trabas, travar, entraver, entraves, trave?

Etymology 2
From, from , from , generally considered to derive from trans- ("across" or "through") or. These long fishing nets were stretched across a river from bank to bank, and consisted of two or three meshes, catching fish who pushed one layer through another.

Ernest Weekley speculates that the name for a trammel net, in English as well as Romance languages, might instead derive from Germanic tram meaning "beam" or "stake" (see above), as these nets were staked to each bank.
