Etymology
The word 'proudly' originates from the Middle English word 'proudli' which means 'in a proud manner'. The term has been in use since the 14th century. It is derived from the Old French word 'prud' and the Latin word 'prode', both meaning 'valiant' or 'brave'. Over time, the word has evolved to connote a sense of satisfaction or self-esteem.
