The term "ralph" as slang for vomit is believed to have originated in the mid-20th century, with its usage becoming more widespread in the 1960s. It likely derives from a playful or euphemistic alteration of the word "vomit" itself, similar to other slang terms that soften harsh realities. The exact etymology is unclear, but it reflects the tendency in English to create informal expressions for bodily functions.
