Why was coronavirus named after there? That wasn't where it started, was it?

@Julien I can see the "crown" connection. The word "coronation" must be from the same word.

@BijouPleasurette coronation is from French , Latin languages are similar

@Julien Actually, I guessed "corona" was a Latin word meaning "crown".
