Etymology
From Old Norse flokkr ("flock, "flying swarm", "poem without refrain"), related to Old English flocc and thus cognate with English flock as well as its Scandinavian counterparts. Akin to Middle Low German vlocke ("crowd", "flock"). Not found in other Germanic languages. See: Old Norse Nouns '
flokkr'.
