Glyph origin

Characters in the same phonetic series (延) (Zhengzhang, 2003) 
Old Chinese
唌 *l'aːn
誕 *l'aːnʔ
蜑 *l'aːnʔ
蛋 *l'aːns
硟 *slan, *l̥ʰjans
涎 *ljan, *lans
脠 *l̥ʰan, *hljan
梴 *l̥ʰan
鋋 *ɦljan, *lan
埏 *hljan, *lan
挻 *hljan
鯅 *hljan
延 *lan, *lans
筵 *lan
蜒 *lan
狿 *lan, *lans
郔 *lan
綖 *lan
莚 *lan, *lans

Originally 㢟, an ideogrammic compound (會意／会意) : 彳 (“walking”) + 止 (“foot”) – "to travel far". The stroke at the top started being added as a distinguishing mark at the end of the Warring States period, as a way to distinguish its usage from 㢟 as an adverb to mean "prolonged", making it an Ideogram (指事) .[1][2][3]

Shuowen Jiezi interprets it as phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *lan, *lans) : phonetic 丿 (OC *pʰleːd, *leds) + semantic 㢟.

Etymology

Within Chinese, cognate with 筵 (OC *lan, “bamboo mat”), 梴 (OC *l̥ʰan, “long (of wood)”) and 誕 (OC *l'aːnʔ, “wide; ludicrous”) (Schuessler, 2007). Cognate with Burmese လှန်း (hlan:, “to dry (things) in the sun”). Probably unrelated to Proto-Tibeto-Burman *jaːr (“spread; extend; sail”), whence Tibetan གཡོར་མོ (g.yor mo, “sail”), Mizo zâr (“to spread; to spread out”), Jingpho yàn (“spread; unrolled”).

Pan (1987) suggests Vietnamese lan (“to spread”) is borrowed from Old Chinese 延 (OC *lan, *lans).
