Unknown origin. Probably cognate withIngrianpulmalliin(“difficult”). The nature of a relationship withEstonianpulm (pluralpulmad),Ingrianpulmat andVoticpulmõd (all "wedding") is unclear, but a semantic development from an original meaning "noise, racket, ruckus" may be possible.^[1] Alternatively, an obscured derivational relationship topula(“shortage, crisis”) may be possible, in which case the Finnish word is not related to those aforementioned words meaning "wedding".
