"Belly" comes from Old English belg, from West Saxon bylg, from Anglian bælg, and meant, "leather bag, purse, bellows." The reconstructed Proto-Germanic form is believed to be *balgiz, meaning "bag."
It is related to Old Norse belgr "bag, bellows," bylgja "billow," and Gothic balgs "wineskin."
So it has been a part of English (and the predecessors to English) in some form for a long time.
