Etymology

The French noun **cigogne** comes from Old French *cigune*, which in turn is derived from the Latin *ciconia* “stork.” The Latin term was borrowed from the Greek *kikōnos* (κικῶνος). Over time the Latin *c* before *i* remained, but the vowel sequence shifted, giving the modern French spelling and pronunciation /siɡɔɲ/.
