The term "corona" is derived from Latin corona, meaning "crown" or "wreath", itself a borrowing from Greek κορώνη korṓnē, "garland, wreath". The word "coronavirus" was first used in print in 1968 by an informal group of virologists in the journal Nature to designate the new family of viruses.

It was immediately adopted by the International Committee for the Nomenclature of Viruses (later renamed International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses). It refers to the characteristic appearance of virions (the infective form of the virus) by electron microscopy, which have a fringe of large, bulbous surface project
