ancymon

== Polish == === Etymology === Uncertain. Possibly a clipping of malimończyk, marymontczyk (“student/professor/baked good from Marymont”), itself probably from French Mariemont (“Mount Mary”), where the element was influenced by a dialectal pronunciation of the prefix anty- (dialectally ancy-), which often has a negative connotation, with sound changes being marymontczyk > marymon > ancymon. First attested in 1914.
