Which language does the word puppet come from?

The word "puppet" comes from the Old French word "poupée", which means "doll".

It's interesting to note that the word "doll" itself comes from the Dutch word "dol", meaning "silly" or "stupid". This is because early dolls were often seen as simple or childish toys.
