Borrowed from Middle Low German pāwest (“Pope”) (compare German Papst), from an earlier pāwes (with an intrusive final t), borrowed from Old French papes, also borrowed from Medieval Latin pāpa (in use for the bishop of Rome since the 5th century), itself borrowed from Ancient Greek πάππας (páppas, “priest”) (< “father”). In Latvian, this loanword is first mentioned in 17th-century dictionaries.[1]
