Where this word comes from
From Middle English pisan, from an Old French word variously spelled pizaine, pizane, pesine, etc, found also in phrases like colarete(s) pizaine, gorgerete(s) pizaine. Probably from Old French piz (“chest”), from Latin pectus, extended like in poitrine, although it has also been suggested that it could derive from Old French pisain (French pisan), "Pisan" (compare burgonet from Bourgogne (“Burgundy”)).
