Eureka, California
"Eureka" received its name from a Greek word meaning "I have found it!" This exuberant statement of successful (or hopeful) gold rush miners is also the official motto of the State of California. Eureka is the only U.S. location to use the same seal as the state for its seal.
Eruca sativa
The English common name "rocket" derives from the French "roquette", a diminutive of the Latin word "eruca", which once designated a particular plant in the family Brassicaceae (probably a type of cabbage). "Arugula" (), the common name now widespread in the United States and Canada, entered American English from a non-standard dialect of Italian. The standard Italian word is "rucola", a diminutive of the Latin "eruca". The "Oxford English Dictionary" dates the first appearance of "arugula" in American English to a 1960 article in "The New York Times" by food editor and prolific cookbook writer Craig Claiborne.
