From Proto-Balto-Slavic *wirˀtei, from Proto-Indo-European *wer- (“to burn”). Compare Latvian vir̂t (“to boil”), Proto-Slavic *vьrěti (“to boil”), Hittite (urāni, “burns”).

An older theory from Pokorny suggests derivation from Proto-Indo-European *h₂wer- (“water, rain, flow”); see the Latin river Avara.
