Dit is dieselfde naam wat Hahn opgegee het as Aunas vir die huidige plaas Dassiefontein nr 87, dist. Keetmanshoop, ten weste van die Karasberghang. Die pastore ontleed dit so: Nama ǃou- - (klip)das, -xa- = baie, die -s is lokatief by ’n bronnaam, dus: 'Fontein (implisiet, met die -s) waar daar baie (-xa-) dassies (ǃou-) is'.
