Etymology: Probably disjoined from the exclamation ἰη παιήων, ἰὼ παιάν (as initial of a song), first as appellative, basis *παιά-(Ϝ)ων like Ιά(Ϝ)ονες, κοινά(Ϝ)ων (s. Ἴωνες a. κοινός w. lit.), but further unclear. After Schwyzer IF 30, 445 f. to παίω `beat' through *παῖϜα, *παϜίᾱ `blow' as "who heals illnesses through magic (Apollon)".

Lincei 6:5, 208. -- The similarity with the peoples name Παίονες may be not accidental (Macurdy Glotta 6, 297ff. Tribal god of the P.; thus Kretschmer Glotta 21, 176f.). - The word may well be of Pre-Greek origin; cf. Ruijgh l.c.
