Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the adjective innocent, originating from Old French and Latin (innocentem, meaning harmless or blameless, from in- 'not' + nocere 'to hurt'). The adverbial suffix -ly was added in Late Middle English to denote manner, shifting the meaning toward acting without guilt, malice, or awareness of potential harm.
