Word origin

The word 'joggled' originates from the Middle English term 'joggen', which meant to shake or move unsteadily. This term was derived from the Old English 'goggian', which conveyed a sense of shaking or jolting. The usage of 'joggle' can be traced back to various forms of movement that involve a certain lightness or playfulness, emphasizing not just physical exertion but also a merry or light-hearted aspect of activity. Over time, it evolved to describe an array of physical actions from running to casual juggling, reflecting the dynamic nature of motion inherent in the human experience. The playful connotation of joggling has made it a beloved term in both sports and leisure contexts.
