Etymology
Mugwort is made of two old parts: mug and wort, where wort means 'plant' and mug may refer either to a 'midge' (a small fly) because the herb was used against insects, or to a 'mug' (cup) because people used it to flavor drinks; so the name points to a useful plant used in cooking and herbal medicine.
