The [[Gaulish language|Gaulish]] [[theonym]] ''Boruō'' means '[[hot spring]]', 'warm source'. It stems from the [[Proto-Celtic language|Proto-Celtic]] verbal root *''berw''- ('boil, brew'; cf. [[Old Irish]] ''berbaid'', [[Middle Welsh]] ''berwi''), itself from [[Proto-Indo-European language|Proto-Indo-European]] *''bʰerw''- ('boil, brew'; cf. Latin ''ferueō'' 'to be intensely hot, boil', Sanskrit ''bhurváni'' 'agitated, wild').{{Sfn|Delamarre|2003|p=83}}{{Sfn|Matasović|2009|p=63}} The ''Bhearú'' river ([[River Barrow]]) in Ireland has also been linked to this Celtic root.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Monnier|first=Nolwena|date=2019|title=Nommer la nature : toponymie de la nature dans la Topographia Hibernica de Gerald of Wales|journal=Études irlandaises|issue=44–1|pages=31–46|doi=10.4000/etudesirlandaises.6884|issn=0183-973X|doi-access=free}}</ref>
