Etymology
From Middle English bastard, bastarde, from Anglo-Norman bastard (“illegitimate child”), from Frankish *b?st (“marriage”) (probably via Medieval Latin bastardus; compare Middle Dutch bast (“lust, heat”)) and derogatory suffix -ard (pejorative agent noun suffix), from Proto-Germanic *banstuz (“bond, tie”) (compare West Frisian boask, boaste (“marriage”)), from Proto-Indo-European *b?end?- (“to tie, bind”); or equivalent to bast +? -ard. Cognate with French bâtard (“bastard”), West Frisian bastert (“bastard”), Dutch bastaard (“bastard”), German Bastard (“bastard”), Icelandic bastarður (“bastard”). Probably originally referred to a child from a polygynous marriage of heathen Germanic custom — a practice not sanctioned by the Christian churches. Related to boose.
Alternatively, the Old French form may originate from the term fils de bast (“packsaddle son”), meaning a child conceived on an improvised bed (medieval saddles often doubled as beds while traveling).
