Lepidolite
The mica was originally named Lilalith (Lilastein) by its discoverer Nicolaus Poda von Neuhaus. This name was felt to be unsustainable in the professional world, since color names would be unsuitable as a generic name and the word was also a hybrid with Arabic (purple = 'lilac' or 'lilac-colored') and Greek components. It was therefore renamed lepidolite, after the Greek words lepidion for "scaly" and lithos for "stone". Put together, the name has the meaning "flaky stone" or "shed stone".
