Etymology

Uncertain; the plant itself is rarely used, so the name of the plant is also rarely mentioned, resulting in various variants of the original name.

In its present state the Russian form is a blend of different names for various plant names, including any combination of бе́рест (bérest, elm), берёза (berjóza, birch), ве́реск (véresk, heather), брусни́ка (brusníka, ligonberry), клён (kljon, maple), хме́ль (xmélʹ, hop) and дёрен (djóren, dogwood). Akin to Ukrainian берескле́т (beresklét).

The Russian term may be borrowed from Ukrainian. This is supported by the plant's distribution and the fact that the stressed -е- hasn't become -ё-. However, the latter could be a result of the term's uncommonness. Furthermore, the alternatively stressed variant бере́склет (berésklet), found in the 19th century may have gone against this regular change.
