Etymologie

() From Middle English waynglori (“worthless glory”), from Old French vaine glorie, from Medieval Latin vana gloria, from Latin vana (“empty", "groundless", "boastful”) + gloria (“fame", "ambition", "boasting”), apparently modelled after similar terms in Germanic languages. Compare Old English īdel wuldor (“vain glory”) and īdelġielp (“vainglory”).
