In the Hindi movie Junglee of 1958, this exclamation Yahoo! was used in the title song. This song is popular even today.
Yahoo !!!........Chahe koi mujhe junglee kahe......
It is possible that the name was taken from this word. Some people say that Yahoo was invented by an Indian but I am yet to ascertain it. Net search has yielded no results.
