Subject: CYPRIANUS: Go behind behind the name

Cyprianus as this site says definitely once came from Cyprus. But what does the name of the island mean? I know that "copper" is derived from the name of the island, and I found a Greek word "kyperos" (some spice plant) but no hint whether this has anything to do with Cyprus.
