Etymology

The term 'bootie' comes from the 17th century, deriving from the word 'boot', which itself has Old English origins, stemming from 'bลt' and 'bลtian', relating to protection or covering. The diminutive suffix '-ie' was added to indicate a smaller or cuter version of a boot. Initially, booties were primarily associated with children's footwear, as they provided warmth and protection for infants' feet. Over time, the meaning expanded to include various forms of fashionable footwear, especially ankle boots, which became popular in women's fashion. Today, 'bootie' encompasses a wide range of styles and materials, reflecting changing fashion trends while retaining its original associations with comfort and protection.
