Etimoloxía (Inglés)

Herdado de Old French: loche

In summary

Inherited from Middle French loche, from Old French loche, further origin unknown. Perhaps from Vulgar Latin *laukka (“loach”), which could be from Gaulish *leuka (“loach, slug”), also attested as the feminine name Leuca, from leux (“bright, light”), a reference to slugs' bright appearance, the fish later being associated due to similarities to the slug. Alternatively, perhaps from Frankish *loppijā, *lobbijā (“something lumpy, slow, or clumsy”), from Proto-Germanic *lubbǭ, from Proto-Indo-European *lewbʰ- (“to cut off, peel, hang loosely”). Compare Middle English lob (“pollack”), Middle Low German lobbe, lubbe (“stockfish; thick, droopy lip”), Middle Dutch lobbe (“thick mass, lobe, lump”), German Low German Lobb (“thick, mushy liquid”), English looby.
