Etymology[edit]
Borrowed from Catalan naip. Most plausibly from Arabic نَائِب (nāʔib, “deputy”), the second-highest court card in the Mamluk deck.
Alternative theories derive it from Arabic لَعِب (laʕib, “game”) or, with regard to the Islamic prohibition against card games, Arabic مَعِيب (maʕīb, “blameworthy”). These appear less likely, though interchange of sonorants occurs quite often in Ibero-Romance borrowings from Arabic.
