Word origin

The term 'Sharpie' originates from the Sharpie brand of markers introduced by Sanford Ink Company in 1964. These markers were known for their ability to write on almost any surface with a bold, permanent ink. Over time, 'Sharpie' has become a generic term for any similar type of marker. The word itself may have originated from the concept of 'sharp' lines and markings created by the marker.
