Dutch[edit]
Etymology[edit]
First attested as wispolia in 1315. Borrowed from West Frisian Terwispel, derived in turn from an inflected form of te (“at”) and the hydronym Wispel, potentially derived from a compound of Old Frisian wisch (“wet pasture”) and pôl (“pool”) or from a verb cognate to Dutch kwispelen (“wave, meander”).
