Etymology

The word 'cozy' (or 'cosy' in British English) has its origins in the early 18th century. It comes from the Scots word 'cosy', which means 'comfortable' or 'warm'. The word has Gaelic (Irish) roots, with the word 'cóiseach', which also implies comfort. The idea of being cozy has become increasingly associated with the atmosphere of home and the warmth of family gatherings. Over time, the comparative form 'cozier' emerged to describe a more pronounced state of comfort and warmth, often used in literature and colloquially to evoke a sense of serene pleasure in domestic spaces.
