Etymology
cop +? -er, with cop deriving from Vulgar Latin *colpus, from colaphus. Generally said to be from an earlier colper, corresponding to a Vulgar Latin verb *colp?re (related to Early Medieval Latin colpus), syncopated form of *colaph?re, from Latin colaphus. Compare Old Spanish golpar, colpar, Old Portuguese golpar, golbar, Old Occitan colpar, copar.
Alternatively, possibly from Vulgar Latin *cupp?re (“to behead”), from caput (“head”), although this is unlikely.
