Etymology

From Ancient Greek τόρμος (tórmos, “socket into which a pin or peg is inserted”), from Proto-Indo-European *tórmos (“hole”), from Proto-Indo-European *ter- (“to rub, bore, twist”) (whence also Russian тере́ть (terétʹ) See Russian etymological dictionary—Terence R. Wade, Terence Leslie Brian Wade.

Oleg Trubachev thinks Greek origin is unlikely. Nikolai Dmitriev suggests adoption from Turkic turmaz ("not stoppable" or "pad for the wheel of waggon"). See «Лексикографический сборник», 3, 1958, p. 45
