“gypped” comes from “gypsy” which comes from “egyptian”.

““gypped” comes from “gypsy” which comes from “egyptian”.”

A derogatory term for an Egyptian is “gyppo” and is probably as much a contraction of “Egyptian” as a reference to the endemic/inherent dishonest shown by ‘gyppo’/Muslim to the non-Muslim.
