Borrowed from GermanSuppe, itself partly via Frenchsoupe, partly via Middle Low Germansope, from Proto-Germanic*supô (compare also sūpen “to drink; to eat with a spoon,” Germansaufen “to drink; to booze”), ultimately from the same Proto-Indo-European stem (*seu-, *sū- “juice; moisture”) as the verb sūkt(“to suck”). This word was borrowed before the 17th century; it is first mentioned in writing in the 18th century (as zupe), but only in the 19th century did it become frequent. The modern form zupa also became dominant in the 19th century.[1]
