Lug (n.)
lug (n.)
- 1624, from lugge (Scot.) "earflap of a cap, ear," probably from Scand. (cf. Swed. lugg "forelock," Norw. lugg "tuft of hair"). The connecting notion is "something that can be gripped and pulled." Applied to mechanical objects. Meaning "stupid fellow" is from 1924. The lug of lugworm is probably an unrelated Celtic word.
