From English cherry, from Middle English chery, cherie, chirie, from Anglo-Norman cherise (mistaken as a plural) and Old English ċiris, ċirse (cherry), both ultimately from Vulgar Latin ceresia, from Late Latin ceresium, cerasium, from Ancient Greek κεράσιον (kerásion, cherry fruit), from κερασός (kerasós, bird cherry), and ultimately possibly of Anatolian origin. Mostly replaced both kersen and kers.
