The usual version is that the word derives from Thomas Crapper (1836-1910), an English manufacturer of toilets, but this is incorrect.

"crap" and "crapping ken" (toilet) appear in the Oxford English Dictionary of 1846 and it is believed that the word originates from the Old French "crappe" meaning grain siftings or chaff.
