I've always thought it was "buck naked," but a quick google search tells me that the modern version is "butt naked."
Which do you say (if you do) and why?

I've always said "buck naked" but I'm not sure why.
I guess it's just how I always heard it.

I've said it Butt naked, as I tend to take the meaning as "birthday suit".

I have a feeling that it refers to native American men, "bucks" who didn't wear much clothing. Here it is: buck naked phrase origin |

Depends on Buck. Is he handsome? Is he all that and a bag of chips? Sure, let him get naked.
Otherwise, I don't think I want to see him butt nekid.

Buck nekkid here as well. When I was growing up we weren't allowed to say "butt." The first time I saw the word "naked" in print, I pronounced it like "baked."  |

"Buck" in military language means "of the lowest possible rank" among several possibilities; hence "buck private" or "buck sergeant". – Carl Brannen Apr 27 '11 at 22:44
2
Another possibility is "buck" as (offensive) slang for a male Native American; who presumably wears little clothes. – Carl Brannen Apr 27 '11 at 22:45
It was "buck nekkid" for Faulkner. – Callithumpian Apr 28 '11 at 2:48
This is what I found when I googled "buck naked." We always said buck naked, but I never knew why.
