Apparently 'pinon' simply means "pine nut" in spanish. It makes sense as initially the plant was (mis)named pinus araucana.

- pezezin 5y agoSpanish is my mother language, I can confirm that is correct. Well, "piñón" can also mean pinion, as in gear systems, but the context should make the meaning clear. Likewise, "piña" can mean both pine cone and pineapple, due to their visual similarity.
