Origin

Middle English (denoting a vagabond or beggar, later a lecherous man or woman): from Old French harlot, herlot 'young man, knave, vagabond'.

In the 13th century a harlot was a term of abuse for a male beggar or villain. It then came to refer to a jester or comedian and to a male servant before it started to mean ‘a promiscuous woman’ in the mid 15th century. It was much used in early English versions of the Bible as a less offensive word than ‘whore’.
