believe it or not, the root word itchy means fish.... i swear.. actually icthy might mean fish

Itchy is not a root word, but a suffixed form of the root word itch, meaning an urge to scratch or a persistent craving. If you mean the root ICHTHY- as in ichthyology (the study of fish), it is naturally derived from ιχθύς (ichthys), the Ancient Greek word for fish.
