Etymology of ABOTT

The word "Abott" or "Abbot" can be traced back to its origin in Old English. It derived from the Latin word "abbas" or "abbas", which itself came from the Greek word "abbas" meaning "father" or "priest". The title "abbot" originally referred to the superior or head of an abbey, which is a monastery or a convent.
