Etymology

From Middle Dutch crieke f, from Old Dutch *krieka, unexplained; perhaps from Late Latin prunum graecum (“Greek plum”), though this isn't attested until 1517 in a Latin-German dictionary. Latin gr was often derived as kr in older Germanic borrowings (see Proto-West Germanic *Krēkō (“Greek”)). See German Krieche for more cognates. See: German Nouns 'Krieche'.
