BULLY

Referring to someone as a bully in the 16th century was like calling them “darling” or “sweetheart” – probably from the Dutch word “boel”, meaning lover or brother.

But the meaning deteriorated in the 17th century through “fine fellow” and “blusterer”, to “harasser of the weak”.

However, an American slang term of the 1860s, “bully for you”, gave the word a more positive sense again.
