Etymology

Pantie comes from the everyday word pants, which itself comes from the older word pantaloons meaning 'long trousers'. The little ending -ie makes a word sound 'small' or 'cute', so pantie is a 'small' or 'cute' kind of underpants for women or children, which is why it means a pair of short underpants.
