Hi guys :)
was there a reason the Infinity Gems were renamed to the Infinity Stones?
Or was it just so they can be tied to the MCU?

You guessed it. Movie synergy.
because they're dumb rocks and they should not be confusing

Yup. There was way too much chance that American cinema audiences wouldn't be able to distinguish between "gems," "gyms," and "Jims."

Did they at least gave a reason in the comics why the gems were turned to stonbes?
Like because of their age, or that how they were recreated after Cap broke them?

After Secret Wars when the universe was recreated they were just rocks of varying shape and size and not cut gems.

Well, at least they gave a reason.

Yes. 10Char
They were originally called Soul Gems until Starlin’s Thanos Quest.
I still call the Infinity Gems. My son tries to "correct" me... But he is the one who is wrong.
The being/cosmos that purportedly comprised the stones still exists. They should be called the Infinity Fallacy.
Still Infinity Gems to me, soul gem is green, power gem is red etc, etc.
The movie synergy is all wrong, and Thanos was depowered, why can't he shoot cosmic beams from his hands ?.
Bad form MCU.
As annoying as "movie synergy" is, what's really wrong with calling them "stones"?
