Etymology 2

Most likely just an international word from Ancient Greek φώκη (phṓkē, “seal”), perhaps with this form in Arabic potentially influenced by فُقْم (fuqm) in the sense of a dog's muzzle. Compare the by-name كَلْبُ البَحْرِ (kalbu l-baḥri, “sea lion, seal”, literally “dog of the sea”) as the Arabs, among other cultures, connect pinnipeds visually with canines.

Noun

فُقَّم or فُقْم • (fuqqam or fuqm) m (collective, singulative فُقَّمَة f (fuqqama) or فُقْمَة (fuqma))
