Not sure if this helps or not, but here goes:
NOUN:
1. An evergreen tree (Myristica fragrans) native to the East Indies and cultivated for its spicy seeds.
2. The hard, aromatic seed of this tree, used as a spice when grated or ground.
3. A grayish to moderate brown.
ETYMOLOGY:
Middle English notemuge, probably ultimately from Old French nois mugede, alteration of nois muscade, nut smelling like musk, from Old Proven�al notz muscada : notz, nut (from Latin nux , nuc-, nut) + muscada, smelling like musk (from musc, musk, from Late Latin muscus; see musk )
