Probably from Proto-Slavic *lěpyrь; equivalent to лепя́ (lepjá, “to stick up”) +‎ -ир (-ir). Compare also Serbo-Croatian ле̏птӣр (“butterfly”) (usually thought to be of Greek origin).

From Ancient Greek λεπίς (lepís, “scale”) +‎ πτερόν (pterón, “wing”); compare dialectal Bulgarian лепир (lepir, “vampire”), dialectal Russian лепень (lepenʹ, “butterfly”).
