What is the origin of the name zinc?

Exactly how the name, zinc, was derived is not now known with certainty. The first documented use of the name was in 1651. There is conjecture that the name is from the German, Zink, a derivative of Zinke; a noun meaning prong or tine, a reference to the spike-like crystaline structure that it takes in a furnace. Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim (pen name: Paraclesus) was probably the first European to describe zinc, and sometime before 1641, the year he died, he mentioned it as zincum or zinken, but that he coined the term, is still conjecture. Further preventing certainty of the etymology of the name, is the fact that the metal has been in use, alloyed with copper, as brass, for more than 9,000, and perhaps as many as 13,000, years.
