Etymology
From de gmh vole, gmh fole, from de goh folo, from de gmw-pro *folō, from de gem-pro *fulô.
goh fulīn (whence modern de Füllen) is originally a diminutive of the same root. The development by which the two words were perceived as mere phonetic variants started in de gml volen vs. gml völlen. Thereby the word became neuter and took the nominative ending -en. Cognate with nl veulen.
