Detailed etymology (in Slovak)
Etymologickým základom mena je starogrécke prídavné meno ἀμάραντος (amárantos), ktoré znamená „nevädnúci“. Obsahuje záporové a- a základ slovesa μαραίνω (maraínō), „spôsobovať vädnutie, vysušovať“; zodpovedajúci význam „vädnúť“ vyjadruje μαραίνομαι (maraínomai). S týmto základom súvisí aj pomenovanie rastliny amarant, sprostredkované latinčinou. Ženská podoba Amarant je doložená v maďarskom mennom repertoári. Predstavy večnej krásy či nehynúcej lásky sú voľnými symbolickými asociáciami, nie doslovným významom mena.
