 Mignon is the French version of the word 'minion'. This word is documented in the English language since the year 1501. It refers to one that is a low dependant of someone. It refers to a sort of a sidekick, someone who is always lagging along like a follower. Alternatively, it is also used to refer to someone who is a favourite, a spoiled individual. It did not have derogatory overtones till the seventeenth century. 

In modern English however, the word is used to denote an individual of a lower rank or order. This kind of reference is mostly used in context with co-workers or subordinates.

from which it probably means low value coins
