Forms: Middle English kocay, Middle English–1500s cokey, 1500s cokkey, 1500s– cockey, 1900s– cocky.

Origin: Probably formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: an element of uncertain origin, ea n.

Etymology: Probably < a first element of uncertain origin + ea n.The identity of the first element is uncertain and disputed, perhaps cock n.³ in a topographical application (compare discussion of place-name evidence at that entry) or perhaps a borrowing < the British base of Welsh coch red (see torgoch n.; compare other river-names cited by E. Ekwall Eng. River-names (1928) 83); for further suggestions, none very convincing, see K. I. Sandred & B. Lindström Place-names Norfolk (1989) i. 6–7. Earlier currency is implied by post-classical Latin cokeya (late 13th cent. in British sources; < English); compare:1285 in W. Hudson Rec. City of Norwich (1906) I. 226 Edificare..tenementum..super Cokeyam..debito cursu Cokeye supradicte. Also attested early in the names of particular watercourses in Norwich, especially the Great Cockey (c1277 as Kokeye; now lost), and also of streets and lanes which originally followed their course, e.g. Kokeye (1286; later Little Cockey Lane, now School Lane), Cockeye (1340; later Cockey Lane, now Back of the Inns and Castle Street), Kokeys Lane (1344; later Wellhouse Yard, now lost), Cokeye (1346; later Cockey Lane, now lost), etc.
