Origin

Early 16th century: probably imitative.

flash from Middle English:
We think of flash in terms of fire and light, but in the Middle Ages it originally meant ‘splash water about’, and like plash (early 16th century) and splash (mid 18th century) probably came from the sound of the word. The association with fire may have developed from the resemblance of the word to flame (see flagrant). The idea of ‘ostentatious stylishness or display of wealth’ goes back to the 17th century. When calling a sudden, brief success a flash in the pan we are referring to early firearms. Sometimes the gunpowder would burn fiercely but ineffectually in the ‘pan’, the part that held the priming charge, without igniting the main charge. The result was a flash and some smoke, but the gun did not fire—what Shakespeare in Macbeth called ‘sound and fury signifying nothing’.
