Etymology
The origin of this word is uncertain. Both a pre-Celtic origin (ancient Ligurian) and a Celtic origin have been argued for.
Numerous toponyms of the Western Alps find their etyomology in this term and its variations: e.g., the comune of Balme, the Colle della Barma and the village of Barmasc (which also contains the ancient ligurian suffix -asc/ascu).
