From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
The suffix is similar to ἐρέβινθος (erébinthos), ὑάκινθος (huákinthos) and λαβύρινθος (labúrinthos), so it is probably a Pre-Greek word. Adaptation to μηρύομαι (mērúomai, “to draw up, to furl”) has also been assumed, however there is little reason for this. Maybe related to μῆριγξ (mêrinx, “bristle”).
