中古英语 shei,意为“容易受惊或惊吓”,源自晚期古英语 sceoh,意为“胆小,容易受惊”,源自原始日耳曼语 *skeukh(w)az,意为“害怕”(源头还包括中低地德语 schüwe,荷兰语 schuw,德语 scheu “害羞”; 古高地德语 sciuhen,德语 scheuchen “吓跑”)。在日耳曼语族之外的同源词不确定,除非可能在古教会斯拉夫语 shchuti “狩猎,煽动”中。意大利语 schivare “避免”,古法语 eschiver “回避”是日耳曼语借词。
意为“因胆怯而回避与他人接触,难以接近”的意思始见于1600年左右。意为“缺乏,不足”的意思源自1895年,美国英语赌博俚语。作为复合词的最后一个成分(gun-shy 等),意为“害怕的,厌恶的,不情愿的”,始见于1849年。
