Origin: From a proper name. Etymon: proper name Gamp.

Etymology: < the name of Mrs. Sarah Gamp (also Sairey Gamp), a character in Dickens's Martin Chuzzlewit (first published in monthly parts in 1843–4). Sarah Gamp is an alcoholic monthly nurse (compare monthly nurse n. at monthly adj. and n. Compounds), who habitually carries a large cotton umbrella in a poor condition. Compare earlier Gamp-like adj., Gampish adj.
