hind: hind: English has two words hind. The adjective meaning ‘rear’ [13] probably came mainly from behind, a compound formed in Old English times from bi- ‘by’ and hindan ‘from behind’, whose ultimate origins are unknown. Related are German hinter ‘behind’, the first element of hinterland, which English borrowed in the 19th century, and the verb hinder [OE], etymologically ‘put behind or back’. Hind ‘female deer’ [OE] comes ultimately from Indo- European *kemti-, a derivative of *kem- ‘hornless’.

"from behind," from Proto-Germanic *hind- "behind" (cognate with Gothic hindan (prep.) "on that side of, beyond, behind;" German hinten "behind"), of unknown origin. Possibly influenced by Middle English hiner (adv.) "back, rear."
hind (n.): "female deer," Old English hind, from Proto-Germanic *hinthjo- (cognates: Old Norse hind, Dutch hinde, Old High German hinta, German Hinde "hind") perhaps from PIE *kemti-, from root *kem- "hornless" (cognates: Greek kemas, Lithuanian smulas "young deer, gazelle").
