I cannot believe that this query has not yet been answered: three minutes spent using the G* search function/engine will reveal that it refers to a 16th Century 'sport' or gambling game, then transformed to weighting horses to even up a context (gambling again) and only began to be used to refer to people (children with what we now call a physical impairment) in 1915 or thereabouts. None of this answers MY query as to why the French use the same term (Handicappe) (- not sure how to insert an accent e/acute here). However, it comes from 'Hand i' the Cap' and NOT from 'Cap in Hand', which is quite different.
The term "handicap" originates from the phrase "hand in cap," which refers to a lottery game where players draw items from a cap. Over time, it evolved to mean a disadvantage or disability that affects a person's ability to compete equally with others.
