Origin
The word "uppermost" has its origins in the Proto-Indo-European language family. The Proto-Indo-European root upo- meant "above" or "up." From this root, the Proto-Germanic word *ufana- was derived, meaning "upper." The superlative form of *ufana- was *ufamista-, which became *ufemest in Old English. The modern English word "uppermost" is derived from this Old English word.
