Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: pad n.5, lock n.2
Etymology: Origin uncertain; perhaps < pad n.5 (although this is first attested later) + lock n.2, perhaps from the similarity in shape between the hanging lock with closed hook and a basket with its handle.
