頭

Daijirin
Early Middle Japanese
Head
Nihon Kokugo Daijiten
Old Japanese language
The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter
Wamyō Ruijushō
ja:頭

Probably from Old Japanese. First cited in the ten-volume Wamyō Ruijushō of 934 CE.
Unknown derivation. Theories include:
* Compound of 天玉 (a tama, literally “heaven, sky + ball”). This is problematic phonetically, as 天 appears historically as ama or ame, not as just a
* Compound of 当て間 (ate ma, literally “putting something in contact + space, gap”), referring to the head as a moxibustion point. This is also problematic phonetically, as the shift from ate to ata necessitates a change in meaning of the underlying verb. This is also problematic semantically, as the 間 (ma) term refers more specifically to a gap or space.
* Compound of 貴間 (ate ma, literally “noble + space”), referring to the most important part of the body. However, the use of 間 (ma) in this way is again problematic. Moreover, 貴 (ate, “noble”) appears in The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter dating to the 900s CE, while 頭 (atama) with a sense of fontanelle appears in the Wamyō Ruijushō dated 938 CE, leaving insufficient time for either the semantic or phonetic drift required.
Historically, this term first appears with a sense of fontanelle, in reference to the soft place on the top of an infant's head where the bones of the skull have not yet fused. As such, a more likely derivation might be as a compound of 当た (ata, “not quite touching, not quite in contact”, possibly a fossilized 未然形 (mizenkei, “incomplete form”) of classical verb 当つ (atsu), root of modern 当たる (ataru, “to touch, to come into contact”)) + 間 (ma, “space, gap, opening”).

神経

The word 神(しん)経(けい) (shinkei) was first used in a book called Kaitai Shinsho (解体新書) published in Japan in 1774 by Sugita Genpaku (杉田玄白) and others as a translation of "Ontleedkundige Tafelen", the Dutch version of the original German book called "Anatomische Tabellen."
In order to translate the Dutch term "zenuw", Genpaku coined the word 神(しん)経(けい) (shinkei) by combining the word 神(しん)気(き) (shinki, “life energy”) and 経(けい)脈(みゃく) (keimyaku, “network of paths”). The original German medical book was published in 1734, and Genpaku and his colleagues spent three years translating the Dutch version and it is recognized as the first Japanese publication relating to the human anatomy as understood by the western medical science. The Dutch version was used because that was perhaps the only foreign language familiar to Japanese at that time as Dutch shipping was the only authorized merchant ships to enter Nagasaki, the only open port recognized by the Tokugawa Shogunate while Japan refused to deal with outside world under the strict isolation policy in effect at that time.

ja:松村明

Generally agreed upon as originating from baby talk.
Derivation unclear. Possibilities include:
* A shift from ををうまい (wo wo umai, literally “huh huh delicious”), as something a baby might say while breastfeeding.
:: /wo wo umai/ → /o o umai/ → /oːmai/ → /opːai/
: While suggestive, the phonetic changes required seem unlikely. Moreover, the pitch accent differs, in that うまい (umai) has a high pitch on the ma followed by a downstep, while おっぱい (oppai) has a high pitch on the initial o followed by a downstep.
* A shift from 一杯 (ippai, “one serving, one cupful; full”), as something a baby might say when done breastfeeding, or when asking to do so.
:: /ipːai/ → /opːai/
: This seems more likely, as the phonetics align better: only one vowel changes, and the pitch accent in ippai is similar with a high pitch on the initial i followed by a downstep.

魔羅

Daijisen#Online_search_engines
Kōjien
Nihon Kokugo Daijiten
Nihon Ryōiki
Shinmura Izuru
Tōkai–Tōsan dialect

From Middle Chinese 魔羅 (muɑ lɑ), in turn a transcription of Sanskrit मार (Māra, “the Destroyer, the Evil One”). The kanji are phonetic ateji (当て字) applied when transcribing the Sanskrit into Middle Chinese.
The shift from "Buddhist evil demon" to "penis" was originally slang use among monks, in reference to sexual desires distracting one from the path to enlightenment.
Some sources link this term to 放る (maru, “to excrete”). However, the verb maru refers to "excreting" bodily wastes in general, not just urination but also defecation, and some sources also list flatulation as an included sense. In addition, other nouns attested from Old Japanese that derive from verbs and end in -a appear to be the result of the action of the verb, which does not fit this case. Ultimately, the proposed connection between Sanskrit-derived mara ("penis") and Japonic-derived maru ("to excrete") appears to be a folk etymology, likely arising from the superficial similarity in forms.
First attested in the Nihon Ryōiki, in a section dated to the early 800s.
