Logget or Locket: Which Is Correct?

"Loggets," or "loggat," is a game formerly played in England in which participants throw pieces of wood at a stake.

Because of how uncommon the word is, "logget" may be a misspelling of "locket," "logged," or "logger." A "locket" is a small ornamental case typically worn around a person's neck on a chain. Meanwhile, "logged" is the past tense of the verb "log," which means entering into a systematic record or cutting down a tree for timber. A "logger" is a lumberjack who fells trees for timber.
