The name apatite comes from the Greek word for deceive or cheat, which is apatao. Throughout history it has been called the deceitful or cheating stone because it is so easy to confuse it with other types of gemstones. While this is especially true in the cut stones used in jewellery, it is also true when it is in the raw crystal state as it has been mistaken for beryl and tourmaline.
