afr Kiepert 1893 kaart 'Nababis' op S 2819 AB: dieselfde by Sprigade-Moisel 1904 Kriegsk, 'n bron.

eng It correlates with the farm Nababis No. 70 in the Dist. Karasburg, who first had a source name, notice locative -s. Do not find any indication of the meaning, possibly explaining as Nababis 2417, unlike 'Rooifontein', with the usual alternation of N and Anlauting Vocal, cf. e.g. NabatSaub. A little here, viz. On S 2818 DA, an Awabis is declared there if Rooifontein is declared. This Nababis Le Southwest of Ariamsvley and, after it on the map 1972, looks at the Nababis River flowing into the geiab, d.w.s. The 'Renoster River', at Inaba = Rhino.

afr Dit korreleer met die plaas Nababis nr 70 in die dist. Karasburg, wat eers 'n bronnaam gehad het, let op lokatief -s. Geen aanduiding oor die betekenis ge- vind nie, moontlik te verklaar soos NABABIS 2417, anders as 'Rooifontein', met die gewone wisseling van n- en anlautende vokaal, vgl. bv. NABATSAUB. ’n Ent hiervandaan, nl. op S 2818 DA, is juis ’n AWABIS wat daar as Rooifontein verklaar word. Hierdie Nababis le suidwes van Ariamsvley en, na dit op die kaart 1972 lyk, aan die Nababisrivier wat invloei in die Geiab, d.w.s. die 'Renosterrivier', by Inaba = renoster.
