What is the origin of the name 'Aqiqah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
It is named 'Aqiqah, and 'Aqiqah is from 'Uquq (undutifulness to parents).

Answer:
That is, it became known by this name, and there is no harm in that, just as Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered that two sheep be sacrificed for a boy.
