There are no exact cognates, though the shape of the word points to a Proto-Germanic *gadją. This would make the ⟨ie⟩ from fronting of *a, palatal diphthongization and i-umlaut, and the geminate ⟨d⟩ from West Germanic gemination which was eventually leveled into the nominative/accusative singular, a development which happened to almost all ja-stems with light root syllables (see hyse).
