Etymology

Cited in the 1958 Dictionary of Chinese Seed Plant Families and Genera (中国种子植物科属辞典). Likely of Dai or Hani origin, preserved in local Yunnan toponyms such as 多依寨 (Duōyī-zhài). The shift from 多 (duō) to 栘 (yí) appears to be have been motivated by a desire for better semantic matching in the written character.
