this is passing strange.. there is a somewhat ordinary English word for meaning #9 (firstfoot), and #8 has "[not] on the backfoot". so is this a continuation on the 'sogennant' theme; i.e., truly worthless words for concepts that have other, more common words available?
I'll foot for 9.

I'm torn between 6, 10 and 13 - both having Irish connections which seem most probable in this case.
Let's go for the lucky number 13

You betcha. What I probably _should_ have written was "...therefore I'll cast my vote for 2...anyway!" just to be more explicit.
