Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

The term combines 'mobile' (derived from Latin mobilis, meaning movable) dating to the late 14th century, 'phone' (an abbreviation of telephone, from Greek tēle meaning 'far' and phōnē meaning 'voice') originating in the late 19th century, and 'number' (from Latin numerus).
