The term "homeboy" derrives from "homie", and each of those terms have been shortened down overtime as "homes", or sometimes spelled "holmes". The term was started by Mexican-Americans living in the barrios of Los Angeles, most commonly said in East Los Angeles. The term refers to friends/companions living in the same neigborhood as eachother. Which is why "HOME" is started before boy, thus creating "homeboy".

Homeboy like "Homie" is an English language slang term found in Westcoast American urban culture, whose origins etymologists generally trace to Mexican-American Spanglish from the late 19th century, meaning a male friend from back home, close friend, or someone gang affliated.
