Origin: Of uncertain origin. Etymon: nazold n.

Etymology: Origin uncertain. Apparently related to nazold n., although the nature of the relationship is unclear. Perhaps compare French nasarde flick on the nose (1542 in Middle French as nazarde , 1548 as nasarde ), mockery (1611) < nez nose (see Nez Perce n.) + -ard -ard suffix.The forms azzard , and azzardly for the corresponding adjective, probably result from metanalysis (see N n.).

Now English regional (northern).

An insignificant or mean person. Cf. nazold n.
