köken: Uncertain. Originally from southern Italy, compare Neapolitan cafone, Sicilian cafuni, possibly of Oscan origin. Another theory traces it to the phrase c'a fune (literally “with a rope”), used to mock those from the countryside who would tie themselves to each other with rope to not get lost.
köken: Recorded in Astrakhan and among Greben Cossacks. Discernably, a transferred meaning of Kalmyk лох (lox, “aloe vera”), which relates through the Kalmyk home in Dzungaria to Chinese 蘆薈/芦荟 (lúhuì, “aloe vera”), see it for more.
köken: A form of the name Johannes, attested as a first name in 14th century. The same etymology applies to surnames Juntti, Junttinen, Junttila, Juntunen, Erkinjuntti etc.
köken: From rūs (“the country”) + -cola (“cultivator, dweller”). The latter comes from colō (“to till, cultivate”) and the agent-noun-forming suffix -a.
