From Middle English ragge, from Old English ragg (suggested by derivative raggiġ (“shaggy; bristly; ragged”)), from Old Norse rǫgg (“tuft; shagginess”), from Proto-Germanic *rawwa-, probably related to *rūhaz. Cognate with Swedish ragg. Related to rug.

Unknown origin; perhaps the same word as Etymology 1, above.

Uncertain. Ideas about the scolding and tormenting senses being related to on the rag are only speculative.

Perhaps from ragged. Compare later ragtime.
