Where this word comes from
From Middle French, possibly from Italian carnagione (“flesh color”), either way from Late Latin carnātiōnem (“fleshiness”) (from Latin carō (“flesh”)), or from a corruption of coronation (from Latin corōnāre (“to crown”), from corōna (“crown”)), because of the flower's use in chaplets or from the toothed crown-like look of the petals.
