Etymology
Most likely from (🇨🇬), the self-proclaimed title of con man Ostap Bender in the novel The Twelve Chairs, by Ilya Ilf and Yevgeni Petrov. The title itself is possibly a reference to combinatorial mathematics, or a borrowing from. See комбинатор.

Dr. Rubik Rozental claims it's a loanword from Ladino (Judeo-Spanish).
