OriginMiddle English: from Old French destinee, from Latin destinata, feminine past participle of destinare 'make firm, establish'. luck from Late Middle English: The native English word for that which determines events was weird, which only came to mean strange or supernatural in the early 19th century. Destiny (Middle English) came later via French from Latin destinare ‘make firm, establish’, fate from Italian, and luck from German. The idea of lucky at cards, unlucky in love is already a commonplace in Jonathan Swift's Polite Conversation in 1738: ‘Well, Miss, you'll have a sad husband, you have such good luck at cards.’
