Etimoloji (İngilizce)

Ortaçağ İngilizcesi öğesinden devralındı: hakeney

Eski Fransızca ile aynı kökten türemiştir: haquenee

In summary

From Middle English hakeney, from the placename Hackney (formerly a town; now a borough of London), used for grazing horses before sale, from Old English *Hacan īeġ (“Haca's Island”, literally “Hook's Island”). The Old French haquenée (“ambling mare for ladies”), Latinized in England to hakeneius, is originally from the English.
