Etymology: An onomatopoeic origin is quite possible. According to Beekes, perhaps from a Proto-Indo-European root common to Russian кре́чет (kréčet, “gyrfalcon”), Irish cearc (“hen”) and Old Prussian kerko (“diver, loon”). The word has been compared with κερκάς (kerkás, “crake”), κερκιθαλίς (kerkithalís, “stork”) and κέρκνος (kérknos, “hawk or cock”).
