Etymology

The word "full-size" combines "full," derived from Old English full (meaning "complete" or "entire"), with "size," from Old French sise (a variant of assise, meaning "dimension" or "regulation"). The compound emerged in English to describe objects or entities that meet standard or maximum dimensions, emphasizing completeness in scale. Its usage expanded in the 20th century, particularly for vehicles and products, to distinguish them from smaller or compact variants.
