The etymology section was written by someone at IP address 80.4.224.6; I transferred it here from Wikipedia Babajobu 19:56, 29 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

That section is way too... encyclopedic. It needs to be cut down (preferably by someone more familiar with current etymology style than I) to only the most relevant information. Compare to other etymologies 'round here. - dcljr 16:48, 4 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

I've trimmed it (drastically). Apart from being encyclopaedic, it looked like a possible copyvio. Widsith 17:00, 4 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Etymology[edit]

Could this word be related to haboob (Arabic for a violent sandstorm)? Ben 11:46, 19 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
