Origin

Late Middle English (denoting a pine cone): from pine¹ + apple. The word was applied to the fruit in the mid 17th century, because of its resemblance to a pine cone.

The Latin pinus ‘pine tree’ had given the word for a pine tree to Old English, and originally a pine apple was the fruit of the pine tree, what we would now call a pine-cone. When the pineapple fruit was introduced in the early 17th century the overall shape and the segmented skin was felt to resemble a pine-cone and the name was transferred to it. See also grenade, pain
