Etymology
The word 'debauchee' originated in the early 18th century from the French word 'débauché', which means 'debauched' or 'corrupt'. It was originally used to describe a person who is morally corrupt or indulges excessively in sensual pleasures. Over time, the term evolved to specifically refer to someone who engages in reckless and excessive behavior, particularly in the realms of alcohol and promiscuity.
