Etymology
From Middle Dutch focke, further origin unclear. Possibly from the verb vocken (“to blow”), itself of uncertain origin, perhaps related to Faroese fokka (“jib”), though this could have been a reverse borrowing. Both of these could be from Proto-Germanic *fuk(k)ōn- (“to blow”), from Proto-Indo-European *pug-néh₂-. See: Faroese Nouns '
fokka'.
