Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the Latin 'reputationem', meaning 'a considering or thinking over', from 'reputare' (to compute, reckon, or reflect). Entering Middle English in the 15th century via Old French 'reputation', the term shifted from the general act of thinking about something to the specific social standing or esteem held by others.
