"etymology_text": "Disc refers to the shape of the carrier holding the music. Jockey refers to a diminutive of jock, the Northern English or Scots colloquial equivalent of the first name John, which is also used generically for “boy, or fellow” (compare Jack, Dick), at least since 1529. So, disc jockey / DJ, refers to a young person playing (with discs holding) music.\nCoined by journalist Walter Winchell in 1935 to describe Martin Block. Appeared in print in Variety in 1941.\nPreviously also called record man.",
