Etymology
First recorded around the 16th century, originally meaning a 'beggar's child' or 'vagrant child' in Middle English. It likely derives from Old English bratt meaning 'cloak', referring to the ragged clothing worn by poor wandering children, shifting to its modern negative meaning by the 17th century.
