Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps a borrowing from French. Etymon: French manchette.
Etymology: Origin uncertain. Perhaps < Middle French manchette (see manchette n.2).Perhaps compare French regional (Normandy) manchette a ring-shaped cake of bread, called in standard French couronne crown n. Manchette in this sense is recorded in E. Robin Patois normand, and Littré Suppl. s.v. This may be the same word as manchette manchette n.2 However, used of a kind of loaf this name (which may be of recent origin) is probably descriptive of shape, while the English word in early use denotes a certain quality of bread, and this may be based on its having been sifted through a narrow bag, or in French manche , lit. ‘sleeve’, also ‘strainer, boulter’ (17th cent.). The following quot., where maincherin (perhaps a variant of Middle French mancheron mancheron n.) is a kind of loaf, appears to support the view that the word meaning sleeve was used as a name for a kind of loaf.1417 in H. T. Riley Memorials London (1868) 644 [Other white loaves, that are called] painman, maincherin. The identity of sense with pandemain n., demeine n., and maine-bread (see maine n.1), suggests a possible etymological connection with those words. The word might represent an Anglo-Norman diminutive < classical Latin dominica ‘of or belonging to the Lord’, or it might be an English compound < maine n.1 + cheat n.2, as Middle Eng. Dict. suggests. Middle Eng. Dict. also points out that some forms, such as mayned and meyned , show confusion with minged adj. (also mengyd in quot. a1450 for manchet flour n. at Compounds, which perhaps belongs s.v. minged adj.). The word is recorded in Eng. Dial. Dict. in the spoken forms manchent, manchun, manshen, manshun, manshut, and mansion.
