Etymology

From Proto-West Germanic *kokk, from Proto-Germanic *kukkaz (“pile, heap”), from Proto-Indo-European *gew- (“to bend, curve, arch, bulge”).

From Proto-West Germanic *kokk, probably ultimately of imitative origin. Cognate with Old Norse kokkr, Late Latin coccus (whence Old French coc, Modern French coq) from the same Germanic source.
