The word "kapok" comes from the Malay word "kapuk," which refers to the silky fibers of the kapok tree (Ceiba pentandra). This tree is native to tropical regions and is known for its large, fluffy seed fibers that are used for insulation and stuffing. The term was adopted into English in the 19th century as the tree and its fibers gained recognition for their practical uses.
