bogybogeyn.¹

Brit.

/ˈbəʊɡi/, U.S.

/ˈboʊɡi/

Forms: Also boguey, bogie. Plural bogies.

Etymology: Found in literature only recently; old people vouched (1887) for its use in the nursery as early as 1825, but only as proper name (sense 1). Possibly a southern nursery form of bogle , boggle , and boggard , or going back like them to a simpler form which, as mentioned under bog n.¹ and bogle n., may be a variant of bugge , bug n.¹ ‘terror, bugbear, scarecrow’. But in the absence of evidence, positive statements concerning its relation to these words cannot be made. (That they are connected with the Slavonic bog ‘god’, is a mere fancy from the similarity of form, without any evidence.)

1. As quasi-proper name: The evil one, the devil.
