御父さん

නිරුක්තිය

Originally a compound of 御 (o-, “honorific prefix”) +‎ 父 (toto, “father”) +‎ 様 (-sama, “honorific suffix”).

/ototosama/ → /otottsan/ → /otossan/

The /otossan/ → /otoosan/ progression was artificial; regular Japanese sound changes generally would not allow this shift. The /otoosan/ form first appears in the early Meiji period in educational materials mandated by the 文部省 (Monbushō, “Ministry of Education”).
