Origin

Middle English: probably from Middle Dutch, from Old French; ultimately of Germanic origin and related to ball¹.

bail from Middle English:
The spelling bail represents several different words. The one meaning ‘temporary release of an accused person’ came via French from Latin bajulare, ‘to bear a burden’, and is related to bailiff (Middle English), someone who bears the burden of responsibility. The Latin word is also ultimately the source of bail (in Britain also spelled bale) meaning ‘to scoop water out of a boat’. The bailey (Middle English) or outer wall of a castle has a quite different origin, but it is connected with the third bail, a crosspiece on a cricket stump: originally this bail meant the same as bailey. The ultimate origin of both of these appears to be Latin baculum, ‘a rod or stick’ which developed the sense ‘palisade’ in French. Bailing out from an aircraft may be a development of the ‘to scoop water’ sense. It was at first spelled bale out, though, and could come from the idea of letting a bale of straw though a trapdoor in a barn. The first written record dates from 1930. This sort of bale (Middle English) has the basic idea of something bundled and is related to ball.
