Osmunda (os-MUN-da) Possibly from New Latin, from post-classical Latin, from Old French osmonde (or
Anglo-Norman Osmond). An old English name in Lyte (1578), from Anglo-Saxon (cannot verify this as
Celtic) god of thunder, Osmunder, the equivalent of or the surname of Thor, the Norse god of war; or from the
Saxon god Osmunder the Waterman, who hid his family from danger in a clump of these ferns, in a reference
to the boggy habitat. Possibly from the Scandinavian writer Asmund (c. 1025) who helped prepare the way for
Swedish acceptance of Christianity. More likely from any of many old Germanic language group versions of
osmunder, (see OED), a possible place name where bog iron was produced, or a term for bog iron itself; it is
possible Osmunda grew where bog iron ore was mined. Folk etymology is from Latin os mundi, bone of the
world. The name also has as a root the Greek verb osmeo, to smell, and Linnaeus did name the cinnamon fern,
so … It has also been suggested the derivation is unknown.
