köken: Probably related to хрю́кать (xrjúkatʹ, “to oink, to grunt”), ultimately onomatopoeic. According to alternative hypotheses, the term might be related to хра́кать (xrákatʹ, “to expectorate”) or to Old East Slavic гричь (gričĭ, “dog”).
köken: Perhaps from 親 (oya, “parent”) + 父 (chichi, “father”). The reading appears to be an alteration of an earlier form, oyachichi, perhaps under the influence of 爺 (chichi, jiji, jī, “old man”). The kanji are jukujikun (熟(じゅく)字(じ)訓(くん)).
köken: From dialectal variant of Swedish fader (“father”). Compare also Finnish äijä (“old man”) and Finnish muija (“old woman, hag; wife, girlfriend; young woman, chick”).
