In summary

16th century, from Middle Low German kime, kimme. This is most plausibly an alteration of kiwe (“jawbone, gill”) after unrelated kimme (“slit, groove”), whence also German Kimme. The former pertains to kauen (“to chew”) and is cognate with Middle High German kiwe (“jawbone, gill”), Dutch kieuw (“gill”).
