Etimologia (Inglese)

Ereditato da inglese medio: cokel

Ereditato da inglese antico: cocc

Ereditato da inglese medio: cockil

Ereditato da inglese antico: coccel

In summary

From Middle English cokel, cokkel, kokkel, cocle, of uncertain origin. Perhaps a diminutive of Middle English cokke, cok (“cockle”), from Old English cocc (found in sǣcocc (“cockle”)) + -le; or perhaps from Old French coquille, from Vulgar Latin *cocchilia, from conchylia, from Ancient Greek κογχύλιον (konkhúlion), diminutive of κογχύλη (konkhúlē, “mussel”), of Pre-Greek substrate origin.
