Proto-Slavic

Etymology

Inherited or (at least) based on Proto-Balto-Slavic *géistei, from Proto-Indo-European *gʰeydʰ-. Cognate with Lithuanian geĩsti (“to desire”) (ye-present), Old Prussian gēide (“[they] wait”) and related to Latvian gàidît (“to wait”), Proto-West Germanic *gīdisōn (“to be greedy”).

Majer presumes origin ultimatly from a proto-medial voice *gʰidʰ-ó(r) ~ *gʰidʰ-ró(r).[1]
