Etymology
Strömberg compares κόρνος (kórnos, “butcher's broom”) and σκόρνος (skórnos, “myrtle”). It seems possible that ἀκορνός (akornós, “grasshopper”) derives from this word, like ἀκανθίας (akanthías, “grasshopper”) beside ἄκανθα (ákantha, “thorn, thistle”). The prothetic vowel, the variations and the -ρν- cluster point to a Pre-Greek origin, according to Beekes.
