Background Story
Huckleberry comes from the name of the variety of shrubs in the genus Vaccinium, or the berries that grow on them. The word is probably an alteration of Middle English hurtilbery, meaning whortleberry, and is recorded in American English from the 1660s. Mark Twain used it for the character Huckleberry (Huck) Finn in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884).
