Proto-Slavic

Etymology

From an earlier *žel-dlo, formed as *želti (“to bite, to tingle”) +‎ *-dlo, from Proto-Indo-European *gʷelH- (“to quell, to stroke”). The nasalization is secondary, result of disimilation *-ldl- > *-ndl- (a similar development occurred in *dętelъ (“woodpecker”), from an earlier *delb-telъ).

Akin to Lithuanian geluonìs (“stinger”), Latvian dzelonis (“stinger”), and Ancient Greek βέλος (bélos, “arrow, needle”).
