The word "violin" comes to us through the Romance languages from the Middle Latin word vitula, meaning "stringed instrument"; this word may also be the source of the Germanic "fiddle".

The answer to this question will ruin the surprise ending of the movie - which is that the maker of the violin in the movie used his dead wife's blood to varnish the instrument, and in doing so the violin took on her life force. Which is complete rubbish since dried blood turns dark brown when dried.
