daffodiln.

Brit.

/ˈdafədɪl/, U.S.

/ˈdæfəˌdɪl/

Forms: Also 1500s daffodyll, 1500s–1600s daffodill, daffadill, 1500s–1700s daffadil. (1800s daffodel): see also daffodilly n., and daffadowndilly n.

Etymology: A variant of affodill n. The initial d has not been satisfactorily accounted for.It has been variously suggested as due to childish or playful distortion, as in Ted for Edward, tante for aunt; to union of the article th' (compare Cotgrave, Affrodille, Th' Affodill, and northern English t' affadil); to final d of and, in (e.g.) ‘fennell an-d affodil’; to union of the Dutch or Flemish article, as de affodil = the affodil; and to French preposition d' as in fleur d'aphrodille. It is noteworthy that as in English the word has gained a letter, in 16th cent. French it sometimes lost one: Littré (s.v. asphodèle) quotes from De Serres (16th cent.), ‘Des racines d' afrodille’, and also ‘Decoction de lapace, de frodilles’. A third form dafrodille is quite conceivable. Affodill and its popular variants daffodil, daffadilly, were originally and properly the Asphodel; then by popular misconception, due apparently to the application to both plants, at their first introduction to England, of the fanciful name Laus tibi (see Turner Libellus B 3 b), it was applied, especially in the popular variations, to species of Narcissus, etc. Botanists, after resisting this misapplication, compromised the matter by retaining affodil for the Asphodel, and accepting the more popular daffodil for Narcissus. Finally affodil was ‘rectified’ to asfodyl and asphodel, and daffodil restricted in popular use to the Yellow Narcissus or Yellow Daffodil of English fields and gardens.

†1. The same as affodill n.; the genus Asphodelus (formerly including some allied plants). Obsolete.
