Etymology 2
1560s, via from  (early 14th century), of  origin.


 * Diez and some other scholars suggest derivation from (whence 🇨🇬 and 🇨🇬), perhaps via, which Körting notes is a literal rendering of . Anatoly Liberman says "the semantic fit is good" but the chronology falters; he says the Germanic word went out of use before the Italian word arose, and he says the intermediary is not attested.
 * Some scholars suggest derivation from 🇨🇬,, from earlier , , from , but 🇨🇬 predates the Spanish word according to Diez and Meyer-Lübke.
 * Meyer-Lübke suggested 🇨🇬 as the root; Körting says "the disappearance of two initial syllables hardly seems credible", but Meyer-Lübke notes the Venetian form narazza and the Old Bellunesian form naraccia, positing that after the first syllable ge- was lost, the remaining (una) narazza came to be reanalysed as una razza.
 * Gianfranco Contini suggests the Italian word comes from, whence Modern 🇨🇬, from . Liberman considers this derivation the most likely.
 * Other suggested Latin etyma:
 * (perhaps via 🇨🇬) (per Baist).
 * (per Ulrich); Liberman says "the semantic match is excellent", and (which definitely derives from radix) shows that the phonology is plausible.
 * (per Körting).
 * The nominative of (perhaps via an unattested intermediate form *razzo), as opposed to  which derives from the accusative rationem.
 * Other implausible suggestions include Slavic raz and Basque arraca, supposedly meaning "stud animal" (Basque arrazza, "race", derives from Spanish).
