Etymology
The word marijuana comes from Mexican Spanish marihuana, which probably comes from a native Mexican name for the hemp plant. A helpful way to remember it is the nickname 'Mary Jane' that people often use for cannabis, and that's why marijuana now means the hemp drug used for medicine or to get high.
