In summary

15th century, from Middle Low German mūke, from Proto-West Germanic *mūku. Of unknown further origin; perhaps from Proto-Germanic *mūkaz, from Proto-Indo-European *mewg- (“slimy, slippery”).
Cognate with Middle High German mūche (whence dialectal German Mauche) and Middle Dutch muyck (whence Dutch muik, now usually mok). The -au- in Mauke either through conflation with the inherited form or simply through artificial adaptation to the Standard German vowel system.
