Etymology
Unknown; possibly dissimilated from earlier *hwahtuz, from Proto-Indo-European *kʷóḱ-tu-s, from *kʷeḱ- (“to see, appear”), perhaps cognate with Old Irish cucht (“external appearance; colour”), Tocharian B kektseñe (“body”).[1][2] Alternatively from Proto-Indo-European *kóḱ-tu-s, from *ḱek- (“to be able, capable”), whence also *hagaz (“skilled, abled”).[3]
