It helps that I have a collection, too (thousands)

I looked for and found this today and added the "yo-yo-yo" text.

Word Origin & History
rapscallion
1690s, alteration of rascallion (1640s), a fanciful elaboration of rascal (q.v.). It is the parallel term of now-extinct rampallion (1590s), from M.E. ramp (n.) "ill-behaved woman" (mid-15c.), which is probably connected to the definition of romp in Johnson's Dictionary (1755) as "a rude, awkward, boisterous,
untaught girl."
