Etymology

Chapleted comes from the word chaplet, a small garland or wreath worn on the head, and that word comes from old French chapelet meaning 'little hood' and is related to the English word cap ('hat' or 'head'). So to be chapleted is to be 'crowned' or decorated with a wreath or flowers on the head.
