The origin is uncertain. Cognate with Azerbaijani mor (“violet”), Turkmen mor (“reddish-brown, rust-colored”), Nogai моры (morı), мору (moru, “brown; maroon”), Karachay-Balkar мор (mor, “brown”), Kyrgyz мор (mor, “a dark brown dye”).

Often considered a borrowing from a violet berry name in an Indo-European language: compare Armenian մոր (mor), dialectal մոռ (moṙ, “blackberry; raspberry; wild strawberry”), Ancient Greek μόρον (móron, “black mulberry; blackberry”), Italian moro (“black mulberry tree”).
