In summary

Spread by Luther; origin unsettled. Probably from Middle Low German hüchelen (whence Danish hykle and Swedish hyckla), which may be akin to Old English hīewian. Older theories are based on Central German origin and relate the word to either hauchen (“to aspirate, to whisper”) or hocken (“to be bowed, to sit”). Compare Dutch huichelen (borrowed from German).
