You're rashly assuming the author is a native English speaker. Or that it's even an actual word (or derivative thereof). I know of a cat that was named Miz Moppet originally, but got renamed 'Nockie' because her favorite human was about a year old and still speech-challenged. Remember - Biff was somebody's dog's name originally.
