vermilion: [13] Etymologically, vermilion is ‘worm’-coloured. The word comes from Old French vermeillon, a derivative of vermeil ‘vermilion’. This in turn came from Latin vermiculus ‘little worm’, a diminutive form of vermis ‘worm’ (source of English vermicelli, vermin, etc and related to English worm). The link between ‘worms’ and ‘red’ is that in the post-classical period, Latin vermiculus was used for the ‘kermes’, a sort of scale insect from which red dye was obtained.
=> vermin - vermilion (n.)
- late 13c., "cinnabar, red dye," from Anglo-French and Old French vermeillon "red lead, cinnabar, (cosmetic) rouge" (12c.), from vermeil (see vermeil). As an adjective, from 1580s.
