The popular explanation is that the word "cab" is short for the French word, "cabriolet," meaning "to leap." The English adopted the word for their one-horse carriage back in the 18th century. The term "cab" came to be used for carriages available for hire. Another French term, "haquenee" (for "horse"), became the word "hackney" or "hack" in English and cab drivers are often still referred to as "hackies."
Another more obscure suggestion is that it comes from the Spanish word for goat, "cabra." Some said that the early carriages for public hire bounced so much that passengers felt as if they were riding on a goat.
