Where this word comes from
Inherited from Old Norse Bókn. The meaning is uncertain; probably derived from an older Germanic word meaning “mark, sign”, referring to Boknafjellet as a sea mark. Less likely explanations connect the name with Old Norse boka (“to strike, beat”), referring to an island struck by waves, or with bøk (“beech”).
