Etymology
Etymology 1
Possibly from Dutch neuken (“to fuck”). Compare cognate and synonymous German Low German nöken, nucken.
Etymology 2
Possibly from or related to German Nuckel (“pacifier; teat”), nuckeln (“to suck”), both attested from the 17th century, in which case the German brand name NUK, though officially an acronym, could be named after the generic word.
