In summary

Inherited from Old Spanish puta, from a Vulgar Latin *pūtta, of uncertain origin, perhaps derived from Latin *puta, female form of Latin putus (“teeny boy”), a hapax legomenon of dubious reading. This etymology is supported by both María Moliner and Joan Coromines. Cognate with French pute, Catalan puta, Portuguese puta, Galician puta, Asturian puta, as well as Old Italian putta (“girl”).
