joggle
Shake just slightly
Joggle means to shake or jolt with a slight, repeated motion—gentler than a shake but more insistent than a nudge: She joggled his elbow to get his attention.
As a noun, a joggle is such a movement, or in construction, a notch or projection that locks adjoining pieces together.
The joint meaning likely comes from the idea of fitting parts by small adjustments.
