Cootie
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cootie can refer to the following:

* Cootie was originally British naval slang for a head louse. It came into common use by the British military during World War I. The word may have originated from the Malayan kutu, meaning dog tick, but kutu is also used in many Pacific Island languages to mean head lice.

* Cootie is a modern-day American children's slang for "germs", lice or a vague notion of contagious personal contamination. See Cooties.

* Cootie is also the name of a table game, the object of which is to be the first player to complete a comic model of an insect from the supplied plastic parts, as determined by the roll of a die. The patent is held by Milton Bradley.
