Etymology: "Cooch" is a clipping of "coochie," so its history is really the history of that longer form. The shorter word has the same origin and meaning, and it is simply the abbreviated version that speakers settled on. Clippings like this one are a common pattern in informal English, where a long word is trimmed to a single syllable for ease and familiarity.

Synonyms: dance
