`Chooky`means ` Duke of`; `Embra` means Edinburgh and the combination was, definitively,the way Glasgow people referred to the Duke of Edinburgh ie Chooky Embra. I suppose `Chooky ` might have come to mean a person from Edinburgh but, if so, it has been manufactured just as ` Weegie ` was to describe a Glaswegian.
