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".

When this term originally began to proliferate in the 1970's it was a derogatory term for someone in the neighborhood who 'stayed inside the house"- had little experience, was afraid to take chances, wasn't cool, kinda sissified; a cat who stayed home with his momma.

a term used commonly in hoods and ghettos closely related to Dawg. the elongated version of homeboy.
for those who have more time for greetings, "Homeboy" can be replaced by something like "Home skillet biscuit on a sesame seed bun with creame cheese mustard jello and ketchup on a sunday morning" Homeboy is often associated with "sup" and "yo."
