Etymology of KECKLE

The word "keckle" does not have a widely accepted etymology or an established historical usage like many other words. It appears to be primarily a dialectal or regional term, often used in parts of Scotland, Northern England, and Ireland.

The exact origin of "keckle" is uncertain, but it is believed to have roots in Old Norse. Some scholars suggest that it may be related to the Old Norse word "kækla", which means "to giggle" or "to chuckle". Over time, "kækla" could have evolved into "keckle" through language changes and regional variations.

However, it is important to note that the etymology of regional or dialectal words can be difficult to ascertain because they often have limited historical documentation or written records. As a result, the etymology of "keckle" remains speculative.
