The word "butt" originates from the Middle English term "butt," which meant the thick part of a piece of wood or the end of something. It is thought to derive from the Old French word "bote," meaning "a bundle" or "a large piece." Over time, the term evolved to refer to the human posterior, likely due to the rounded shape associated with the body part. The usage of "butt" in this context became more prominent in the 19th century.
