Die woorde ǀu en sy s.nw. ǀu-b = salpetersout, en ǀubeb = brakbos, ook as-, sout- of seep- en loogbos, naas ander name, kom dikwels in plekname voor, die U- soms as O- (bv. Obiep, of kyk OKIEP). Soms dra meer as een plek dieselfde naam, en soms het die inboorlingnaam verdwyn, bv. deur plek te maak vir 'n vertaling. Hier is oor meer as een plek gepraat.
