The word "milleporite" has its origins in Latin and Greek. It is derived from the Latin term "millepora", which means "thousand pores". "Millepora" is a combination of the Latin words "mille" (thousand) and "porus" (pore).
In Greek, the word "millepora" was transliterated to "mīlleporos" (μίλληπορος), where "mīlle" corresponds to "thousand" and "poros" means "pore" in Greek.
The suffix "-ite" is commonly used in mineralogy and paleontology to indicate a rock or fossil of a specific type or class. Hence, "milleporite" is used to refer to a fossil coral of the genus Millepora, which is characterized by having numerous small pores.
