The word 'Halogens' derived from Greek words 'Halous-means sea salt' and 'Genous-means to produce' , so it means sea salt producers.

"Halogen" refers to a group of non-metallic elements that include fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine. Halogens are known for their high reactivity and tendency to form salts when they react with metals.
