comes from the spanish for dancing "bailler"

"balearic islands" literally translates as "the dancing islands"

ok I made it up...but it sounds good :oops: ;)
 
no, its greek, just heard it on tv....balearios.....many 100 years ago, there where many people from mallorca, ibiza,...in greece, and the greeks called them "balearios", which means that they where very good in "steinschleudern"...catapulting stones?...dont have an idea how to explain it in english... :D ...
