From 中期英語 futtek, votek, of uncertain origin; perhaps a compound of 古期英語 fōt + hōc, or fut + -uc (foot hook or foot -ock), Old Dutch vot or fuot + hoek; or from timber jargon word butt + -ock (diminutive suffix). Alternatively from Middle Dutch voetkijn, diminutive of voet (“foot”), equivalent to foot + -kin; or 古期英語 *fōtuc, meaning foot + -ock (diminutive suffix).
Perhaps came into 古期英語 from Old Norse fótr, or fett / futt (big); + ek (timbr), or øks; giving Old Norse fót'ek, futtek or futtøks; equivalent Norwegian is fot haki, fett eik (tømmer), or fett øks; meaning foot hook, big oak (timber), or bold axe.
futtock (plural futtocks)
