Etymology
The term 'jauntier' is derived from the word 'jaunty,' which originally comes from the French word 'jante,' meaning 'sprightly' or 'elegant.' The etymology can be traced back to the Middle French word 'jante' (though its precise origins are somewhat obscure). In English, 'jaunty' was first recorded in the early 18th century, capturing the essence of a carefree or self-assured attitude. The comparative form 'jauntier' emerged to describe someone or something that is more lively or cheerful compared to another. Over time, the word has maintained its positive connotation, often associated with fashionable or spirited behavior.
