Dit is die wisseluitspraak van HARAMOEP, alwaar. Naramoep beteken 'Vratjiesoog', die Khoekhoense naam waaronder Jonker Afrikaner bekend was (Nama ǀhara- = vratjie, en mub = oog). Moontlik het hy ’n tydlank hier sy verblyf gehad, en het die berg-en die omgewing hulle naam van horn gekry. Die dentale slag plus h- (ǀh-) is gehoor as die dentale n-. H- en n- wissel mekaar dikwels af, ook in ander omgewings, vgl. TH A* 46 onder 5 D 6.
