The word 'gossip' has Old English origins, specifically from the term 'gลdsibb' which referred to a godparent or someone who is a close friend. This word evolved over time, influencing the development of the word 'gossip' as it is used today. By the 16th century, 'gossip' came to refer to chatter or conversation that is often trivial or focused on the personal affairs of others.
