Where this word comes from
First attested in the mid 17th century. Most likely borrowed from Early Modern Dutch stof, from Middle Dutch stoffe, borrowed from Old French estophe, estoffe, from estoffer (“to provide what is necessary, equip, stuff”). The word is ultimately Germanic and was borrowed into Old French from Old High German stoffōn, itself from Proto-West Germanic *stoppōn, making it a doublet of stopfen (“to stuff, to plug”).
