Mahogany Name meanings & History

Mahogany is derived from the English word for the reddish-brown wood species found in tropical regions. The wood itself obtained its name from the West African port city of Moçâmedes (now Namibe, Angola). The name Mahogany does not have a clear meaning beyond its association with the wood.
