II. trepan, trapan, n.2 Obs. or arch.|trəˈpæn|
Also 7–8 trapan, (trappan).
[A word of obscure and low origin, prob. originally a term of thieves' or rogues' slang. According to the known evidence, originally applied to a person in sense 1 below (quots. 1641, 1653). Thence arose the verb describing the action of such persons, trepan v.2, found in various constructions 1656–62. Hence, finally, a second use of the n. as a name of the action, 1665, sense 2 here. The earlier spelling of the n. was trapan, probably formed in some way from trap n.1 or v.1 The change to trepan, seen first in the vb., may have been due to association with trepan v.1 (a much earlier and well known word), of which trepan v.2 may have been supposed to be some sort of fig. application.
No F. trapan or trapaner in this sense is recognized by Littré, Hatz.-Darm., Cotgrave, Godefroy. Nor is there any reason to connect trapan with OProv. trapon ‘sorte de piège’, nor with It. trapanare = trepan v.1]
