短释义：
Infamous is from Latin infamis, for negative fame. If you’re bad but unknown, then you’re not infamous — it’s reserved for those wicked and well-known people that capture our collective imagination. It is a strong and resonant term. Some synonyms are notorious, disgraceful, and odious. The stress is on the first syllable.
臭名昭著的人名声很坏。如果你成为好莱坞明星，并发现自己因自己的风流韵事和嗜好而出现在八卦杂志的页面上，那么你将成功地变得声名狼藉。

Inknown 源自拉丁语 infamis，意为负面名声。如果你很坏但默默无闻，那么你并不是臭名昭著——它是为那些抓住我们集体想象力的邪恶而知名的人保留的。这是一个强烈而引起共鸣的术语。有些同义词是臭名昭著的、可耻的和可憎的。重音在第一个音节上。

下面是词源的翻译（机器翻译比较难翻，参考着看）
臭名昭著的（形容词）a 16c。两个中古英语单词的合并，其形式为 inknown“不知名”（15 世纪早期）和 infamis 的含义（14 世纪晚期）“坏名声，因坏而闻名”。 Inknown 源自中世纪拉丁语 infamosus，源自 in-“不，相反”（参见 in- (1)）+ 拉丁语 famosus“庆祝”（参见著名）。 Infamis 源自拉丁语 infamis“恶名昭著”（见 infamy）。 “造成臭名昭著”的意思源自 1550 年代。作为一个法律术语，“因对某些罪行定罪而被取消公民的某些权利”（14世纪末）。中性的无名（从原始到臭名昭著的意义上）是从 1590 年代开始记录的。相关：臭名昭著。相关条目及更多
