The genus name Marrubium derives from the Latin word marrubii, meaning horehound. The French Talmudic exegete, Rashi, thinks that this herb may have been used as one of the bitter herbs on the night of Passover.[5] The common English name horehound is of unknown origin, but with the first part 'hore' derived from "hoary", "hairy".
The species formerly classified as Marrubium nigrum (Black Horehound) is now placed in the genus Ballota.
Marrubium species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Coleophora lineolea.
