Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymons: French romeny, romenie.
Etymology: < Anglo-Norman romeny, romeney and Middle French romenie, rommenie, romanie (?c1240 in Anglo-Norman), apparently < Anglo-Norman and Middle French Romanie , Romenie , as name of Greece (see Romany n.), the wine being so called on account of its provenance. Compare Italian †romania (a1410), Middle Dutch romanie , romany , romenie , rommenye (Dutch †romenie , †roomenye ), Middle Low German rūmēnīe , rūmānīe , rōmēnīe , rōmānīe , etc., Old Danish rumeni (1461; Danish †rommenie , †romenij ), post-classical Latin romania (in an undated occurrence in Du Cange), and also (with added suffix -er -er suffix1) Middle High German rōmāner, rōmēnyer.It is unclear whether earlier instances as a vernacular word in Latin documents should be taken as showing the Middle English or the Anglo-Norman word; compare e.g.:1380 in A. H. Thomas Cal. Plea & Mem. Rolls London Guildhall (1929) II. 272 Romeneye, Malvesye, [and] Provynce [wines].1393 in L. T. Smith Exped.
