As for me when it comes to the word rotten I only use it when it comes to food however it’s a big country & I’m sure other people use the word rotten & in other ways as well.

No, but I like it. Plenty of Rotten Born people here. Some are School Shooters.
Some ram parades with their cars. Others blow up buildings. Others molest children.

It probably comes from "Rodden born" meaning born in Rodden, England. Although many germanic languages have a variation of rot meaning red.
