BombsAway Wrote:No not at all. Amethyst is a jewel. I am not sure where you got this idea from! If all other towns were named vaguely like jewels then maybe this logic would stand, but that's not the case and yeah. Amherst definitely has nothing to do with Amethyst.

http://www.thinkbabynames.com/meaning/0/Amethyst Wrote:The girl's name Amethyst \a-methy-st, am(e)-thyst\ is pronounced AM-uh-thist. It is of Greek origin, and its meaning is "precious purple jewel". According to ancient Greek superstition, an amethyst protected its owner against the effects of strong drink. The amethyst is the birthstone for February.

Amethyst has 4 variant forms: Amathyst, Amatista, Amethist and Amethiste.

Amethyst is a very rare female first name and a very rare surname (source: 1990 U.S. Census)

Amherst. Hmm.. No connection though.
