词源
brim (n.)”brink, edge, margin,” c. 1200, brymme “edge (of the sea), bank (of a river),” a word of obscure origin, chiefly Northern, which is probably from or related to dialectal German bräme “margin, border, fringe,” from PIE *bhrem- “point, spike, edge.” It was extended by 1520s to the upper or projecting edge of anything hollow (cups, basins, hats).
Old English (and northern Middle English) had brim “sea, surf, pool, spring, river, body of water,” of uncertain origin perhaps akin to Old Norse barmr “rim, brim.” “It became obs. in ME.; but was perhaps used by Spenser” [OED].Related entries & more

下面是词源的翻译(机器翻译比较难翻,参考着看)
brim (n.)“边缘、边缘、边缘” c. 1200,brymme“(海的)边缘,(河的)岸”,一个来源不明的词,主要是北方,可能来自德语方言 bräme“边缘、边界、边缘”或与之相关,来自 PIE *bhrem ——“点、穗、边”。到 1520 年代,它扩展到任何空心物体(杯子、盆、帽子)的上部或突出边缘。古英语(和北部中古英语)有“rim”,“海洋、冲浪、泳池、泉水、河流、水体”,其起源不确定,可能类似于古挪威语 barmr“rim,brim”。 “它在 ME 中成为 obs.;但可能被 Spenser 使用”[OED]。相关条目及更多
