Francis Joseph Steingass speculates that it is from Arabic قِرْد (qird, “monkey, ape”). His nineteenth-century dictionary gives "monkey" as the only noun definition while marking قر دادن (qer dâdan) as a "modern colloquial" verb for "to coquette about, sway the body as in a dance",^[1] so perhaps the verb emerged first with a literal meaning of "to give the monkey", and the current meaning of the noun is a backformation from the verb.

Monši-Zâde instead suspects a connection with گرد (gerd, “circular”), and also a play on a form of غربال (ğarbâl, “searce”) due to the fashion a sieve is worked.^[2]

قر • (qer) (plural قرها (qer-hâ))

• قر (qer), rolling the hips, is the most common dance move in Iran and is not as sexualized as it is in the West.
