Etymology
From Irish and Scottish Gaelic gugaí/gogaí/gogaidh, a nursery word for an egg.
Noun
googie (plural googies)

1890 April 12, The Nepean Times, Penrith, NSW, page 9, column 2:On one of the Northern lines there was a lane where a certain train stopped nearly every day for an old dame who was always waiting to send some eggs into town. One day the train stopped for Granny, as usual, and she explained to the driver that owing to circumstances over which she had no control she could raise eleven "googies" only on that occasion.
