Etymology:
The testicle (from Latin testiculus, diminutive of testis, meaning “witness” [of virility], plural testes) is the male generative gland. The etymology of the word is based on Roman law. The word “testis”, witness, was used in the firmly established legal principle “Testis unus, testis nullus” (one witness [equals] no witness), meaning that testimony by any one person in court was to be disregarded unless corroborated by testimony of at least another. This led to the common practice of producing two witnesses, bribed to testify the same way in cases of lawsuits with ulterior motives. Since such “witnesses” always came in pairs, the meaning was accordingly extended, often in the diminutive (testiculus, testiculi).
