The word Gumption first appeared in 1719 in Scotland, meaning “common sense or shrewdness”, but is of uncertain origin.
The word may be connected with Middle English “gome” = attention, heed, notice (probably borrowed from a Scandinavian source around 1200)
The meaning of initiative or enterprise was an early secondary sense, recorded about 1812.

Etymology: based on the literal meaning of a gleam in your eye (a sudden expression of an emotion in your eye)
