Etymology
Catmint comes from Middle English catt mynte, kattesminte, equivalent to cat plus mint. Because the word appears in early Middle English (c. 1230) and in other Germanic languages (German Katzenminze, Icelandic kattarminta, Swedish kattmynta), it very likely also existed in Old English, as *cattes minte.
