From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Traditionally from in- (“un-, not”) + gens (“kind, family, race”); something that goes beyond what is natural for its kind. Sometimes linked to Proto-Indo-European *méǵh₂s, from an extended form of the oblique stem *m̥ǵh₂- ; this would make it cognate to magnus, Ancient Greek μέγας (mégas) and Sanskrit महत् (mahat)[1]
