Etymology
Acacia from the Greek 'akakia' and derived from 'ake' or 'akis 'meaning a sharp point or thorn and 'akazo' meaning to sharpen. Dioscorides, the Greek physician and botanist used the word in the 1st century AD for the Egyptian thorn tree, Acacia Arabica. Brachystachya from the Greek 'brachys' meaning short and 'stachys' meaning a spike, referring to the short male inflorescences.
