One source states that Tobago is a corruption of the name of the indigenous Caribbean plant known in Spanish as tabaco, but known in English as tobacco.
"But Sp. tabaco (also It. tabacco) was a name of medicinal herbs from c.1410, from Arabic tabbaq, attested since 9c. as the name of various herbs. So the word may be a European one transferred to an American plant." 1
