What words derive from the Greek midas?

The word "Midas" itself, referring to the legendary king who turned everything he touched to gold, is directly derived from the Greek word Μίδας (Mídas).

While there aren't many direct derivatives in common usage like "midasian" (though that exists as a less-common adjective), the word's legacy has influenced language through its association with wealth and the touch of gold. This influence is mostly indirect and appears in metaphorical uses rather than direct word formation. For instance, phrases referencing "Midas touch" or "Midas-like success" are common, but these aren't etymological derivatives in the same way "photograph" is derived from "photo" and "graph."
