Unknown, attested from the late 14th century, which is after the Mongol invasion, so probably folk-etymologically altered after без-(bez-) + мѣна(měna) and a Turkic rendering of Arabicوَزْنَة(wazna), as most Slavic languages also have Arabicقِنْطَار(qinṭār) via Turkic to denote the steelyard, both originally units of weight. Compare Old Polishbezmian.
