Etymology

The word 'butt' has a long history, dating back to Old English 'buttuc', which originally meant 'end, short piece'. Over time, the meaning evolved to refer to the posterior of the human body. The slang usage of 'butt' to mean cigarette likely originated in the early 20th century. The verb form of 'butt' meaning to hit or push likely comes from the notion of striking with the head or horns, similar to how animals like goats or sheep might behave.
