===Etymology===
From {{bor|en|pt|flamengo|t=flamingo}} and {{bor|en|es|flamenco|t=flamingo}}, which were adapted from {{der|en|ca|flamenc|t=flamingo}}, of disputed ultimate origin in this sense.<ref>{{cite-journal|title=Flamenc, flamenco, flamingo : "phoenicopterus ruber"|journal=Revue de linguistique romane|author=Germà Colón|volume=68|year=2004|url=https://doi.org/10.5169/seals-400085}}</ref> All three forms are used adjectivally as an [[ethnonym]] meaning 'Flemish' (of Germanic origin, cognate to {{cog|en|Fleming}}); Spanish {{m|en|flamenco}} refers also to a dance type. Compare also {{cog|fr|flamant|t=flamingo}}.
From {{der|en|pt|flamingo}}, from {{der|en|es|flamengo||flame colored}}, from {{der|en|prv|-}} {{m|oc|flama||flame}}, from {{der|en|la|flamma||flame}}, ultimately from {{der|en|ine-pro|*bʰel-|*bʰl̥g-|to shimmer, gleam, shine}}.
*The bird's name may derive from the ethnonym by an association of a ruddy complexion or hair color with the Flemings;<ref>{{cite-journal|title=Unlikely Word Pairs: A Sampling of Dubious Dublets|author=Stewart Edelstein|journal=Oberlin Alumni Magazine|year=2002|volume=98|issue=1|url=https://www2.oberlin.edu/alummag/oamcurrent/oam_summer2002/feat_word3.htm}}</ref> this etymology is supported by Corominas.<ref>Colón 2004, page 323</ref> (In Spanish, {{m|es|flamenco}} can be used colloquially as an adjective meaning "robust, healthy-looking".<ref>{{R:es:DRAE|flamenco|flamenco}}</ref>)
* Alternatively, either the dance ''flamenco'',<ref>{{cite-journal|author=William Sayers|title=Spanish ''Flamenco'': origin, loan translation, and in- and out-group evolution (Romani, Caló, Castilian)|journal=Romance Notes|volume=48|issue=1|year=2007|page=14|url=http://www.jstor.org/stable/90011890}}</ref> the bird name or both come from attaching the same Germanic-derived ending found in the ethnonym to the distinct root of {{der|en|la|flamma||flame}}: i.e. Catalan {{m|ca|flamenc}} has been analyzed as {{af|ca|flama|-enc|nocat=1|t1=flame}}. Compare also {{cog|pt|-engo}}.
