Etymology
The word 'guy' originated in the 1600s as a term for a man or person. It is believed to have come from the name 'Guy Fawkes', a man involved in the Gunpowder Plot of 1605. Over time, the term evolved to refer to any man or male individual, and later to informally describe a male friend. Today, 'guy' is commonly used in informal settings to refer to men or male friends.
