As far as meaning is concerned, it is reasonably certain that it is related to the appearance of the abicison, the Tamarex USNEOIDES. There are some place names with the Dabe / Dabi / Dawe / Dawi as ingredient, but for the meaning there is nothing to add. The names show, summary, the widespreadness of tree and salt bills.

Description
eng As far as meaning is concerned, it is reasonably certain that it is related to the appearance of the abicison, the Tamarex USNEOIDES. There are some place names with the Dabe / Dabi / Dawe / Dawi as ingredient, but for the meaning there is nothing to add. The names show, summary, the widespreadness of tree and salt bills.
afr Wat die betekenis betref, is dit redelik seker dat dit verband hou met die voorkoms ter plaatse van die abiekwaboom, die Tamarix usneoides. Daar is nog enkele plekname met die dabe-/dabi-/dawe-/dawi- as bestanddeel, maar vir die betekenis is daar niks meer by te voeg nie. Die name toon, samevattend, die wydverspreidheid van die boom- en soutbossoorte.
