Borrowed from Vulgar Latin ziniperus (perhaps via a Western Romance form with /b/ for /p/) understood as a compound with ber (“berry”) for the juniper berry,^[1] although a reconstructed Proto-Germanic *ainijaz^[2] or *jainijaz^[3] from a Proto-Indo-European acrostatic n-stem noun *h₁óy-n- ~ *h₁éy-n-s, collective formation *h₁oy-n-yo-, has been fancied with reference to the (itself deemed borrowed) Classical Latin iūniperus and (barely identified) Hittite 𒂊𒅀𒀭 (e-i̯a-an /⁠ei̯an-⁠/, “(a kind of) evergreen tree (yew?)”).
