Meaning & History

From the name of a type of crystal.
This crystal's English name is derived from Sinhalese tòramalli, via French tourmaline. The meaning of this word seems to be not entirely certain, although one theory suggests that it simply means "cornelian".
As a name, Tourmaline has been in use since the late 20th century.
