From Latin myrtus and murtus and these from Greek myrtos, which they gave in the Languages Hispanomediterránea murta and in Spanish myrtle or arrayan. It is also a name for place names and localities perhaps because of the presence of this shrub, which for classical Greeks and Latinos had erotic semantic nuances for being dedicated to Venus or Aphrodite. That is why in some literary languages, such as the Cortázar glyglyc, it has a clear sexual significance.
