Origin: Apparently from a proper name. Etymon: proper name Badminton.

Etymology: Apparently < the name of Badminton House (see Badminton n.¹), and presumably because played there, but the exact details are unknown. (Quot. 1863 is from an article entitled ‘Life in a Country House’, but the house is not identified explicitly.)The claim of earlier use made in the following quotation has not been substantiated:1875 Edinb. Rev. Jan. 81 The first idea of a game similar to Tennis, but out of a tennis-court, is due to the Duke of Beaufort, who twenty years ago put up a net in his gallery, and played a game called, from his residence, ‘Badminton Battledore’. As balls were found to endanger the pictures, a swift and elastic shuttle-cock..was substituted.

A game played on a court (usually indoors) across a net with rackets and a shuttlecock.An adaptation of the children's game of battledore and shuttlecock. A popular tradition about the origins of the modern game, according to which it is said to have been developed by British army officers in India, and to have been so named after a version of the game which was played at Badminton House in 1873 by officers on leave, is not borne out by the evidence, although versions of the game were known among the British in India by 1872.
