Old English swan, from Proto-Germanic *swanaz (cf. Old Saxon swan, Old Norse svanr, Middle Dutch swane, Dutch zwaan, Old High German swan, German Schwan), probably literally the singing bird, from PIE root *swon-/*swen-to sing, make sound (see sound (n.1)); thus related to Old English geswin melody, song and swinsian to make melody.
