In summary

14th century, from Middle French acabit, acabie (“kind, sort”, in one instance also “accident”), of unknown origin.
Possibly from Old Occitan *acabit, past participle of acabir, itself a byform of two different verbs: 1.) cabir (“to contain, comprise”), from Latin capere, and 2.) acabar (“to finish, bring to an end”), from Vulgar Latin *accapāre (cognates of French chevir and achever respectively). The semantics are not entirely convincing, however, and the nominal use is entirely unattested in Occitan.
