Etymology
Possibly related to Middle Dutch fleeuwen (“to coax, cajole”), which is likely akin to the synonym vleien. For the alternation between -w- and -m- between fleeuwen and flemen, the cases of schremen and schreeuwen (both meaning "to scream") have been adduced as comparanda, but there does not seem to be a clear explanation that would account for this seemingly irregular alternation.
