In summary

Ultimately from Vulgar Latin minimāre, a verb based on Latin minimus (“least”). Considering its rather late date of first attestation in Spanish (1603) and the absence of an inherited Portuguese counterpart, Coromines & Pascual suppose it was likely borrowed, through mercantile contacts, from Occitan mermar, a term well-attested since the twelfth century.
