Etymology
From Middle Dutch store, from Old Dutch sturo, from Proto-Germanic *sturjô (“sturgeon”); see also Old High German sturio (“sturgeon”) and Old English styria; from Proto-Germanic *sturjô; cognate with Russian осётр (osjótr, “sturgeon”), Lithuanian eršketras; of obscure origin, but possibly related to the root of stir. Other theories trace it to a lost pre-Indo European language of Scandinavia.
