Forms: 1800s– babooshka, 1800s– babuschka, 1800s– babushka, 1900s– babuszka (in sense 2).

Origin: A borrowing from Russian. Probably also partly a borrowing from German. Etymons: Russian babuška; German Babuschka.

In plural form babushki after the Russian plural form. In form babuschka probably via German Babuschka grandmother (1838 or earlier; originally and chiefly in Russian contexts; < Russian).
