According to:Dictionary.com The word 'Bagel' comes from (1919), from Yiddish beygl, from M.H.G. boug- "ring, bracelet," from O.H.G. boug, related to biogan "to bend" and O.E. beag "ring" (in poetry, an Anglo-Saxon lord was beaggifa "ring-giver"). The variety of bagel with onion flakes sprinkled on it is a bialy, short for Bialystok, city in Poland.
