Malus, the Latin word for apple, and for evil. The pun was just too good to pass up...

You may have scored a bingo! I knew Malus means bad or evil in Latin. But I didn’t remember it also meant apple in Latin. This could be how the eden tree fruit got designated to become an Apple. Not an iPhone tho. Just an Apple. 🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🤡

Different word - think bow (front of a ship), bow (tied ribbon), and bow (bend from the waist).
