What's the origin of the arabic name salwa?

Also, does the name have any history in Islam ? Is it mentioned in the Quran? Thanks

What's the origin of the arabic name salwa?
[2.57] And We made the clouds to give shade over you and We sent to you manna and quails: Eat of the good things that We have given you; and they did not do Us any harm, but they made their own souls suffer the loss.


Salwa means quails in this ayah[2.57]


Edit


I think it's origin is 爻賱賵which means forgeting or Consolation
