Actually no, the name is new world. If you get in-depth and check genus
species type names you will find that the little berry has two well known
modern names (Blueberry and black lingonberry depending on the continent) and
one medieval name which is not used much anymore (whortleberry). You can
find a vast description of whortleberry in "Gerard's Herbal" among others.
