Persian
Etymology
From Middle Persian [script needed] (čšmk' /čašmag/, “spring, source”), from [script needed] (čšm /čašm/, “eye”) + [script needed] (-k' /-ag/),[1] equivalent to modern چشم (čašm, “eye”) + ـه (-e).
A relation between eye and spring seems to be common in the area. Compare Baluchi چمگ (cammag, “spring, source”) from چم (camm, “eye”), Gilaki چمار (čumâr, “spring”) from چم (čum, “eye”), Arabic عَيْن (ʕayn, “spring, eye”), and Old Armenian ակն (akn, “eye, spring”).
