willockn.

Brit.

/ˈwɪlək/, U.S.

/ˈwɪlək/

Forms: 1600s twillock, 1600s willick, 1600s– willock.

Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps from a proper name, combined with an English element. Etymons: proper name Will , -ock suffix.

Etymology: Origin uncertain. Perhaps < Will, pet form of the male forename William (see Will n.⁴) + -ock suffix (although this does not account for the early form twillock, unless this simply shows an error); if so, the name is probably imitative in origin, after the high-pitched call of the juveline. Compare guillemot n., guillem n., and also willy n.² 1.

Now historical and rare.

Any of several auks; esp. a guillemot.
