overbold

/ˌoʊvɚbˈoʊld/ adj B1

too bold

Word Origin Overbold is a straightforward Old English compound: 'over' meaning beyond, and 'bold' meaning brave. The idea is boldness taken too far, crossing into recklessness. The same 'over' prefix appears in overcome, overlook, and overwork, while 'bold' gives us embolden (to make bold). The PIE root *bhel- for bold also relates to swelling or blowing up—you can almost see someone puffed up with too much courage.
