Proto-Germanic

Unknown, though probably related to Proto-West Germanic *hōkīn (“kid”). For a semantic parallel from a potentially-related set of lemmas, compare Proto-Slavic *koža (“skin, leather”), from Proto-Slavic *koza (“goat”).[1]

Alternatively, derived from *hakô (“hook”) + *-ulaz (“diminutive suffix”), thus "a coat buttoned with clasps".[2]
