What Is the Etymology of Pomegranate? 

"The name pomegranate derives from medieval pōmum "apple" and grānātum "seeded".Possibly stemming from the old French word for the fruit, pomme-grenade, the pomegranate was known in early English as "apple of Grenada"—a term which today survives only in heraldic blazons.

Garnet derives from Old French grenat grenatfrom Medieval Latin granatum as used in a different meaning "of a dark red color". This derivation may have originated from pomum granatum, describing the color of pomegranate pulp, or from granum, referring to "red dye, cochineal.

The modern French term for pomegranate, grenade, has given its name to the military grenade."
