Dr. Kevin de Cock
I had to look up the etymology on this name. Dr. Kevin de Cock. Of Cock. Of the Cock. I have a friend named Kevin. I had to find out. What's this Cock mean? Canadian musician Bruce Cockburn pronounces his name Co-burn. Is de Cock said like it looks? Or is there some European twist that makes it sound more sophisticated?
It's Dutch or Flemish for 'cook' and derives from the occupation.
Does that mean Bruce Cockburn comes from a family of bad cooks?
Other famous Cocks include Christina Cock, an Aussie supercentenarian and Bob Cock who isn't a true Cock but a man who took the Cock name.
