Etymology
The word 'wavy' originated from the Old English word 'wรฆฤก', meaning a wave. It has been used to describe the rippled or undulating forms in nature, such as waves in the ocean or curves in hair, for centuries. The term has evolved to represent not only physical characteristics but also movements and patterns that resemble waves. 'Wavy' continues to be a popular term to describe various forms of undulations and curves in modern usage.
