Etymology

The word 'braggy' originated from the word 'brag', which dates back to the 14th century. It is believed to have derived from the Middle English word 'braggen', meaning 'to make a loud noise', which in turn comes from the Old Norse word 'bragรฐ', meaning 'the bestowal of a gift'. Over time, 'braggy' has evolved to describe someone who excessively boasts or shows off about their achievements or possessions.
