A full grade agreement gives the Swed. fishname färna f., IE *perḱ-n- like περκ-ν-ός. With *περκός, πέρκος a Celt. word can be identified: MIr. erc (Wesh erch) `spotted, dark-red', as subst. `salmon, trout', also `cow, lizard'. -- Another representative is the Germ. word for `vatiegated, colourful' and `colour' in OHG faro, farawa, IE *porḱ-u̯ó-; one must certainly also consider Lat. pulc(h)er `beautiful' from * pelc-ro-s or * polc-ro-s (with dissim.); IE *perḱ-, resp. *porḱ- or *pr̥ḱ-. On the formation also Borgström NTS 16, 141 f. -- Further forms w. lit. in WP. 2, 45 f., Pok. 820f., W.-Hofmann s. pulc(h)er and 2. porcus. Older lit. also in Bq.
