It's an onomatopoeia associated with the primally satisfying act of eating.

Also, it's one letter away from champ so we get echoes of the thrill of victory!

@AnotherWeirdo Honestly I didn’t expect such an intelligent answer to such a spacey question.

Allll the victory echoes for you my friend!

@Lotsofberries All my intelligence is reserved for goofy things like that so I'm not surprised at all!

@AnotherWeirdo That’s the best kind of intellect. Who needs to know all the countries on a map or how to find X in an equation when you can reel off 42 facts about peanut butter or aquatic fish?
