Andromeda is a constellation, but because one of the best-known and most-photographed galaxies is M31, the "great nebula in Andromeda", the name is often used to refer to the galaxy. Charles Messier was a French astronomer who was a fanatic about comets. Most of his astronomical observations were done while hunting for comets. But there are a lot of faintly bright fuzzy things in the sky that are NOT comets, and Messier achieved lasting fame for his list of things that look like comets but are not comets. M31 is "item number 31" in Messier's list of fuzzy things that aren't comets.
