Etîmolojî (Îngilîzî)

Possibly a spontaneous alteration of the interjection ho. The use as a joyful exclamation is attested from the 16th century; use as an informal greeting appears only in the 20th century.
Another possibility is the borrowing from English ahoy or Middle English hoy; See also ahoi.
