Nguồn gốc từ
From Middle English quiver, from quivre, from cocar cocare (source of koker, and cognate to cocer), from *kokar (container), said to be from -, possibly from *kökexür (leather vessel for liquids); see there for more. Replaced early modern cocker, the inherited reflex of that West Germanic word.
