Etymology

From frumos, through the intermediate of a form frumușat, reduced through a childish-type deformation (cf. the similar reduction in (ma)mă-ta (“"your mother"”) and some other words or expressions). An alternative and unlikely explanation favors a derivation from Latin musteus (“young”).[1] While it is now archaic or obsolete in Daco-Romanian, the Aromanian cognate mushat is the primary word for "beautiful" in that language. Mușat is also a surname and was the name of an early dynasty of rulers in Moldova (see House of Mușat on Wikipedia).
