Word origin

The word 'profile' originated in the 17th century from the Italian word 'profilo,' which in turn came from the Latin word 'profilare,' meaning 'to delineate.' Originally used in art to refer to a side view drawing of a head, the term evolved to encompass written or digital representations of individuals or systems.
