The word "hammer" changed quite a bit, but I still find it interesting that it origins from Proto-Indo-European word for stone: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Reconstruction:Proto-Indo-Eur...

It still sounds somewhat familiar to modern slavic words for hammer: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/kamień#Polish
