In summary

Inherited from Middle French garçon, from Old French garçon, garçun m (“servant, boy”), from Early Medieval Latin garciōnem, accusative of garciō m (“mercenary, servant, boy”), from Frankish *wrakjō m (“servant, boy”), from Proto-Germanic *wrakjô m (“exile, driven one”). Cognate with Old English wreċċa (“exile, outcast”), whence Modern English wretch.
