Morphology
narcissistic = narcissism (opaque) = narciss + istic
The term 'narcissistic' derives from 'narcissism', which is rooted in a mythological story not immediately apparent from the word parts.
Etymology
Narcissistic comes from the Greek myth of Narcissus, a young man who fell in love with his own image in a pool. So, narcissistic describes someone who is very 'in love with themselves' or too self-centered.
