The name "horseradish" likely comes from the Old English term "hors," meaning "strong" or "coarse," and "radish," referring to its relationship to the radish family. The "horse" prefix may imply that the plant is a larger or more potent version of regular radishes. The root is known for its pungent flavor and sharpness, which aligns with this naming convention.
