Don't quote me on this but 'autograph' might come from the French word 'Orthographe' and translates as 'spelling'. But then again I don't know for sure.

But I found this.

The word is Greek in origin:

"Auto" for "self"

"Graph" from "graphein", meaning "to write"

Thus, "autograph" means to write oneself--as in one's identity.
