Bokalectic is believed to be of Ancient Sumerian origin. Invaders arriving on the shores were of uncertain military numbers and undetermined technological capability, posing an immense and undermined, or bokalectic, military threat.

Others believe the term originated following a dispute over a game of shove ha'penny in a pub in Downpatrick, Co. Down, Northern Ireland. The exact entymology is lost in the mists of time (with advocates of the first view blaming the passage of time; and mistiness of recall being a key factor for supporters of the latter argument).
