Etymology

1. Inherited from Old English hæfen, hæfene, from either Old Norse hǫfn or Proto-West Germanic *habanu, from Proto-Germanic *habanō.
2. The final vowel is either generalised from the Old English oblique forms or continued from the n-stem variant hæfene, though disyllabic forms continuing the ō-stem nominative hæfen are common even in varieties with little apocope. See: Old English Nouns 'hæfen', Old English Nouns 'hæfen', Old Norse Nouns 'hǫfn'.
