Best Answer

Before Rapunzel was born, her mother had cravings for rapunzel, a type of lettuce. The family was poor, so her father stole rapunzel from the witch next door. The witch caught him, and gave him the lettuce, but in exchange, demanded the baby as soon as it was born. The father, horrified and in shock, didn't know what to do, and took the lettuce and ran away. When the baby was born, the witch stole her away, and named her after the lettuce that she'd been traded for.
