Etymology

The adverb slimly is derived from the adjective slim, which has origins in Middle English and Old French. The word slim itself has been used since the 17th century to describe thin or slender objects or individuals. Over time, slimly has evolved to encompass both physical appearance and the degree of something being minimal or slight.
