Borrowed from Middle High German schive (“disk, round plate, dish”), or maybe from Middle Dutch schijf or an East Frisian word (compare Saterland Frisian Schieuwe, Skieuwe; also compare German Scheibe). The borrowing is first mentioned in 17th-century dictionaries (as šķīva), in competition with another borrowing, tallerķis, telerķis, telēķis (compare German Teller). In the 19th century, a form šķīve is mentioned, especially from Kurzeme, while telerķis was more frequent in Vidzeme. A. Kronvalds used both forms to translate German Teller (šķīvis (telēķis), in 1863). The form šķīvis became standard in the literary language by the end of the 19th century.

This word has the same origin as the verb skaust (“to envy, to (be)grudge”) (q.v.) and the adjective skaudrs (“sharp, acute, biting”): the Proto-Indo-European stem *skaud-, *skud- (with an extra -r, yielding Proto-Baltic *skudr-). The original meaning was therefore “that which cuts, pierces, bites.” Cognates include Lithuanian skudrùs (“quick, crafty; sharp, cutting”).

A 19th-century neologism, from sens (“ancient”) + -atne (or perhaps from the adverb sen, q.v.), coined in 1869 by A. Kronvalds, following the pattern of jauns (“new”), jaunatne (“youth”) (originally “recent times”). Kronvalds also used the word senība in the same sense, which he had either heard from a dialect (it is attested as a dialectal term) or then created independently, following the example of Lithuanian senýbė. Only senatne remained in the standard literary language.

There are diverging theories on the origin of this word. The most likely derives it from the past particle of an old unattested verb *kūt (“to hit, to strike”), whence also kūja (“stick, pole”) (q.v.); the original meaning would be “hit (one)”, “driven, stuck (into the ground)”, referring to the fact that primitive animal barns or sheds were little more than fenced enclosures made with poles or sticks driven into the ground (the farm buildings which inherited the name appeared only in the 9th-10th century). The original participle, probably an a-stem (*kūtas), became an i-stem (*kūtis > kūts), possibly under the influence of other i-stem farm building names like klēts (“barn, granary”), pirts (“bath”). Another hypothesis is that the long ū might come from an earlier un, in which case kūts would be related to Proto-Slavic *kǫťa (“house”) (Bulgarian къща (kǎšta, “house”), Russian куча (kuča), кут (kut, “corner, nook”)). The Lithuanian cognates (kūtìs, kū̃tė), however, have ū instead of the expected un, which weakens this hypothesis.
