ELI5: Why is the word "'nother" so typically said after "whole"?

Would the proper expression be "a whole another noun" or "a whole other noun"? If it's the latter, why is it so generally accepted to add an "n" to "other"?

This is an infix, a word inside a word to add emphasis (compare with prefix and suffix). It is placing "whole" inside of "another," a-whole-nother.

The only other common infix in English is "fucking," e.g. abso-fucking-lutely and god-fucking-dammit.
