From A3 +‎ format, first part is the first letter of the Norwegian alphabet with a number. Last part most likely from Italian formato (size, dimension (on paper)), of formare (to form, create), from Latin formāre, present active infinitive of formō (I shape, form), from fōrma (form, figure, shape, appearance) with an unknown descent, perhaps from some Etruscan *morma, connected by some with Ancient Greek μορφή (morphḗ, shape, form, appearance), possibly of Pre-Greek origin.
