A good place to look up origins of these kind of words is
http://catb.org/~esr/jargon/jargon.html. You
will find some detailed
information on "foo" "bar" "foobar" and many others. BTW, furchtbar
means
terrible.

That's a very good possibility!
Now, uh, for us non-German speakers, what is "furchtbar?"
