Etymology of TOOTLE

The word "tootle" originated from the Middle English verb "totelen", which means to play or sound a musical instrument, specifically a pipe or flute. This Middle English verb is believed to have derived from the Middle Dutch word "tutelen", meaning to make a dull or muffled sound. The Dutch term, in turn, possibly comes from the Old English word "totolian" and the Old Norse word "totla", both of which also mean to make a dull sound. Over time, the meaning of "tootle" expanded to include playing or improvising on any musical instrument, not just a pipe or flute, making a high-pitched sound in a light and playful manner.
