ornament
ornament: [14] Ornament comes from Latin ōrnāmentum, a derivative of the verb ōrnāre ‘equip, get ready’, hence ‘decorate’. This also forms the basis of English adorn [14] and suborn [16] (etymologically ‘equip secretly’).

Meaning "decoration, embellishment" in English is attested from late 14c. (also a secondary sense in classical Latin). Figurative use from 1550s.
ornament (v.)
1720, from ornament (n.). Middle English used ournen (late 14c.) in this sense, from Old French orner, from Latin ornare. Related: Ornamented; ornamenting.
