العود
Originally means a stick of wood or a branch cut from a tree.
So, lute (العود) was called like that because it's made of wood (العود)

In Arabic there is no لوت, it is because ancient Europeans (just like their descendents, nowadays :) ) couldn't pronounce the sounds ع, so they just omit it, and changed "d" to "t"
al 3oud
=> aloud
=> lude
= >lute
