Why is tag called tag?
Why is tag called tag? It has to be made up, as the name “tag” is an older name for the game. Tag is likely a corruption from the old english word “tick” from the Germanic/Dutch “tikken” (to touch or pat lightly). Evidence of tick being in usage is documented from around the 16th century.
