The French word is "dinde", and the ethmology IIRC is "from India" (d'Inde)

Now, in French, "pute" is a derogatory term for a prostitute.

From "poule d'inde", litterally "hen from India", which got shortend as such things tend to be. And it replaced the delicious Christmas goose for a while because it was "exotic".
