The word 'munchkin' may be found in dictionaries, where munchkins are defined as small in size, diminutive in stature. But the word appears to be a made-up word that's in the English language because of the popularity of the Oz series of royal histories for children. Author and Oz series originator Lyman Frank Baum [May 15, 1856-May 6, 1919] confided little of his sources of inspiration to anyone. And the origin of the word 'munchkin' definitely isn't something that he explained. So unless original notes are found or family secrets are told, any explanations are just good guesses.
