Annies(Fontein)
This refers to what appears on the cards and place notices as 'Annis' compiled with a component as '-fontein, -kop, River'. These names are treated in th a * 199-200. The first member (from Nama) means 'known'. The spelling 'Annies' as in SESA may also occur elsewhere. The mentioned places, certainly the fountain, have nothing to do with the personal name of an Annie, this form is a (probably unintended and coincidental) misappropriation.

Hier word verwys na wat op die kaarte en pleknaamlyste voorkom as 'Annis-' saamgestel met ’n komponent daarby soos '-fontein, -kop, -rivier'. Hierdie name is behandel in TH A* 199-200. Die eerste lid (uit Nama) beteken 'Bekend'. Die spelling 'Annies-' soos in SESA kom moontlik ook elders voor. Die genoemde plekke, bepaaldelik die fontein, het niks te doen met die persoonsnaam van ’n Annie nie, hierdie vorm is ’n (waarskynlik onbedoelde en toevallig grappige) wanaanpassing.
