Etymology
Probably an assibilated form of Middle English fiken (“to jitter; move restlessly; hustle; flinch; hasten away”), perhaps related to Old English befician (“to deceive”) or from Old Norse fika (“to climb up nimbly, as a spider”), akin to Norwegian fika (“to strive after”), Swedish fika (“to strive for; hurry”). See also fike. See: Old English Nouns '
befician', Old Norse Nouns '
