notoriously

/noʊˈtɔɹiəsɫi/ adv

In a notorious or notable manner; as is commonly known.

Word Origin Notoriously comes from notorious, from Latin notorius 'well-known,' from notus 'known.' The root gno- 'to know' gives us know, notice, and ignore. Notorious originally just meant 'famous,' but the negative sense of 'infamous' developed over time. So notoriously means in a way that's widely known, usually for something bad.
