There is an old French word from the 14th Century 'laniere' meaning a thong or lash. The word also referred to a thong used for securing clothing or parts of armour. In nautical terms it refers to a short rope or wire to hold or tighten standard rigging. There is another word 'lasne' meaning strap, which may be of German origin
