Etymonline
Word Origin & History
cubbyhole
1825, the first element possibly from a dim. of cub "stall, pen, cattle shed, coop, hutch" (1540s), a dial. word apparently with cognates in Low Ger. (cf. E.Fris. kubbing, Du. kub). Or related to cuddy "small room, cupboard" (1793), originally "small cabin in a boat" (1650s). Or perhaps simply a children's
EXPANDmade-up word.
