Coriander

Coriander is the anglicized form of the Latin name for the spice, namely coriandrum. In turn, the Latin name comes from the Greek name for the spice, namely κορίανδρον (koriandron). The latter is a variant form of κορίαννον (koriannon), which is the name most commonly used (for the spice) in the Hellenic world. Another variant form is κορίανδρος (koriandros), which is the least common out of all of them.

From the ancient Greek word "Kori'Annon", which was the name of the spice, but also the name of a woman ornament.
