Hier is sprake van twee plekke, 'n 'verhewenheid' in die suidelike Kalahari, bekend as Nooi [K 2822], en ’n plaas met ’n spoorwegstasie daarop, geleë tussen Kimberley en lohatlha, bekend as Nooibos op K 2824 AC. Vgl. ook NOIB. Die ǃ noes of gewoonlik Inoebos, in die Duits van Suidwes INoebusch (Ponnighaus 1931 Joernaal 6 14), wat volksetimologies verander tot nooi en nooibos, kry sy naam in Khoekhoens van ǃnoe = om te haas, gou te speel, vanweë die waarneming dat die hakiesdoring vroeg en vinnig bloei (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 298). Vgl. ook PJ Nienaber 1963 SAPW 306, Du Plessis EJ 1973 Ondersoek 39. 'n Ander opvatting oor wat nooi (ǀǀnoi) beteken, by mnr Dixon van Pofadder.
