More like "archaic" - comes from the 山海經
>有草焉,其狀如葌,而方莖黃華赤實,其本如藁本,名曰荀草,服之美人色。

說文: 草也

And at some point it became the name of a state
荀草赤實,厥狀如葌。又國名
Diff:
- 荀 荀 [xun2] /herb (old)/
# + 荀 荀 [[xun2]] /(archaic) name of a plant mentioned in ancient texts/name of an ancient state/
+ 荀 荀 [[xun2]] /(archaic) name of a plant mentioned in ancient texts/name of a state that existed during the Zhou dynasty in present-day Shanxi/
