Because You Asked: Moxy Etymology

I’m unabashedly fascinated by the search terms people who’ve gotten to this site have used (there may be recent ones here). I wish I had better access to the logs so I could set up Jim Flanagan’s nifty tideghost script. But I guess I can set that up for some other site somewhere…

Anyways, some poor sap got dumped here by a search for “moxy etymology”. This sort of search, I’ve learned, is generally not the greatest way to get decent information on a word, but I view it as a Cry for Help — a Request by the Internet that a Pedant somewhere, be he never so sciolistic, hold forth.

“Moxy” is a fairly recent word, mainly American, meaning something like “spunk, hoo-ha, bravado, get up and go, sass”. Stuffy ol’ OED calls it slang and insists on spelling it “moxie”, which spelling the Dictionary of American Regional English also prefers. So does google. And Merriam Webster. Hmm…

It comes from Moxie (trademark 1924), a soft drink. It showed up in its modern meaning pretty quickly. DARE and OED have this quotation from 1930: “Personally, I always figure Louie a petty-larceny kind of guy, with no more moxie than a canary bird.”

This quote captures part of the vibe of “moxy” for me — the word’s got moxy. It wouldn’t surprise you to see it in an old gangster film, or in hard-boiled fiction. In 1955 the Publications of the American Dialect Society note “blows his moxie” as a kind of cant equivalent of “loses his nerve”.

Stuffy ol’ OED doesn’t deign to dirty its feet in the bogs of moxy’s history before the soft drink, but DARE’s got a bit more moxy, and points out the existence of a precursor to the soft drink — a patent medicine named Moxie, developed around 1880 and once advertised as a “nerve food”. Actually, maybe I’m being a bit hard on OED. They do have a nice early quotation which refers to this patent medicine and tickles at the edges of our modern “moxy”: H.C. De Mille in 1890: “Young man, you’ve got nerve enough to start a Moxie factory.”

Holy Crow! I just looked around a bit and Moxie is still around! And a trillion people have already written THIS SAME ESSAY, only with more knowledge behind it. What a drag, the internet clearly already knows all about this. “And deeper than did ever plummet sound I’ll drown my book.” Go here, everything there is much better than this.

Let’s just finish this up. Why name a patent medicine Moxie? According to DARE, it is after a Maine plant, some sort of evergreen variously called moxie, moxie berry, moxie vine, moxie plum. This makes sense, given that the founder of the Moxie company was from Maine… The moxie plant in turn DARE reckons to perhaps be called after an Algonquian base, “maski-”, meaning “medicine”.

    dude, i’d been wanting to try this stuff since i heard of it (my first love was for the word, not the bev), and i finally happened across it at the stah mahket the other day. the shit is NASTY NASTY NAAAAAASSSSTEEEEEEE. you should try it, just to be amazed that they consider it something appropriate for sale to human beings for recreational use. it tastes like it should be curing some horrible disease that people generally don’t get anymore. btw, we should also do lunch w/becky and erica. peace mug.

  2. joseph january Says:

    i’m afraid the OED has you on all points re the origin, use and spelling of ‘Moxie’. as Coke once was the “pause that refreshes”, Moxie was the drink that gave you the “get-up and go” [a phrase borrowed by the Prairie Home Companion]. it’s ads featured pretty, fresh-looking young girls apparently bursting with energy. i dont have the formulation at the moment but it originated at the time when soft drinks were not necessarily carbonated and commonly contained, not only caffiene, but cocaine, bella donna or even opium and these substances could be bought OTC, so it may have contained any of these as well.

  3. StarHopper Says:

    What I can’t figure is why, in the face of all the evidence to the contrary, you attempt to continue spelling it moxY. One of those cases where you spelled it wrongly the first time you ever wrote it, & now can’t bring yourself to break the habit? Best defense is a good offense?? *LOL*

    Oddly, in case you’re wondering, the link to here was actually used in the caption for today’s APOD, or Astronomy Picture Of the Day – a staple for us stargazer types.

    (Only, it was spelt correctly!) *grin*

    Far out! I think that APOD is the coolest – a continual source of wonder – and I’m amazingly baffled and honored to have been linked from there.

    Moxie is a “tonic”. The inside 128 natives should have a good idea ’bout that. Moxy? A plant? Dunno ’bout that. I grew up in s. central Mass, while Moxie was not common, it existed I think Polar was the local bottler.

    I have to do some hoop jumping to get Moxie here in GA. Monarch (who owns the petent) is based in Atlanta. Once I called them about it and they sent me a t-shirt.

    It is much more fun to be differnt, in 1960′s ads featuring Ted Williams – “Make Mine Moxie!”

    My first impressions of the iPad are largely positive. Apple has once again built a product that looks good and feels great in the hand, and the familiar user interface, borrowed from the iPhone and iPod touch, is perfectly suited to the bigger screen. The iPad whizzes along, opening applications, re-sizing web pages, and zooming in and out of maps almost instantaneously. Does someone know the release date? i love it and i want it…

    I smoked for a long time and giving them up was literally impossible. I bought all of the stopping gadgets but none worked for me. Then I saw the electronic cigarette.

If you prefer, you can add some lemon slices to the jug of water for extra flavour, or to drink tea with fruit flavour but no sugar. It is a simple and healthy trick that will help you a lot in your weight loss efforts.<a href =”http://howtolosemyweight.info“> Lose weight fast</a>

    I have some small labtec speakers that I use on any audio device, including both my laptop and all my mp3 players. The speakers I have are black and have something connected to them that appear like the end of headphones, so you just plug that into any headphone jack and it will play the music through those speakers. You can adjust both treble and bass with them, too as volume.

    I can honestly testify that of all the separate colon and liver flushes available these days, Advanced Colon Max is,by a long shot the most effective for me. As long as you follow the guidelines and are disciplined with your eating habits. You shouldn’t just take it, and wolf down a ton of junk food and heavy foods. If you think you will do just that, then save yourself the stress and abdominal discomfort. Come back to it when you are determined to make real changes. Just my two cents :)

    Olive oil is always a wise choice in cooking oil. It contains monounsaturated fat which is actually good for your body. However, sometimes, depending on the dish you are preparing, you won’t want the strong taste that olive oil imparts to food. In those cases, I’d reccomend canola oil. It’s healthier than vegetable oil, cooks just as well, and doesn’t leave any kind of unwanted taste with the food.

    I don’t wish to get off of topic here nonetheless this kind of comment is certainly kind of general in makeup and also much more of a question. on that chance someone health and fitnessHarvey’s best selling book called Fit For Life has changed the way that me and my family eat. We also love the juicing. organic juiced apple juice I feel significantly better. I understand he’s got brand new book named living without pain and I can’t wait to get my hands on that although things i wondered about is his endorsement of this vitamin mineral supplement named livethesource. From what i read he has never ever approved a supplements previously therefore my question for you is so why this one and why now. I know that this offers newer and more effective patented nano technology but could it be that new and exciting? Has anybody around got any kind of exposure to this? I will enjoy a reply, Thanks as well as thanks to you people that work on your blog, you have performed a great job and that i personally will be visiting frequently.Check Harvey Diamond and livethesource Out Here
