The word "begonia" comes from the name of Michel Bégon, a French governor of Saint-Domingue (now Haiti) in the 17th century. Bégon was an avid botanist, and the plant was named in his honor by the French botanist Charles Plumier, who discovered it during his explorations in the Caribbean. The name reflects both the plant’s beauty and its connection to the history of botanical exploration.
