Etymology: < Anglo-Norman aduber, Anglo-Norman and Middle French adoubber, adubber, adober, Middle French adouber to arm or equip (a knight), to dub, invest with the insignia of knighthood (both 12th cent. in Old French), probably < a to + an unattested simplex verb borrowed from a Germanic language (although see discussion at dub v.1; Anglo-Norman dubber , duber , douber probably shows either an aphetic form or influence from English). Compare (probably all < French) Old Occitan adobar , Spanish adobar (12th cent.), Portuguese adubar (13th cent.), Italian addobbare (a1306 as adobare ). Compare earlier adubment n.The byname Adobed recorded in 1086 apparently reflects earlier isolated borrowing of the French word (and hence earlier currency in French also).
