Nuichas
Dr. Vedder leads the name from ǀǀ Nui-b = fat, with -exa = much ('ueberflluss') and with -s for place indication, as a whole a probability statement. The 'Old Namas' leads the first component of what is in Namaǃ No-S is called, 'Der Hak- Jesdorn' (Kr. Smith 1966 CNSAP 450 SV Black hook (thorn). In Afrikaans, the inland name went to invitation (cf. Coetzee's spelling), including Noebos (Smith 351), and comes in place names, see O.A. Invite (forest) and noib. The Coetzee's distraction deserves preference. There is also a river named Nuichas in the same place.

Description
eng
Dr. Vedder leads the name from ǀǀ Nui-b = fat, with -exa = much ('ueberflluss') and with -s for place indication, as a whole a probability statement. The 'Old Namas' leads the first component of what is in Namaǃ No-S is called, 'Der Hak- Jesdorn' (Kr. Smith 1966 CNSAP 450 SV Black hook (thorn). In Afrikaans, the inland name went to invitation (cf. Coetzee's spelling), including Noebos (Smith 351), and comes in place names, see O.A. Invite (forest) and noib. The Coetzee's distraction deserves preference. There is also a river named Nuichas in the same place.

Dr Vedder lei die naam af van ǀǀnui-b = vet, met -xa = veel ('Ueberfluss') en met -s vir plekduiding, as geheel ’n waarskynlikheidsverklaring. Die 'ou Namas' lei die eerste komponent af van wat in Nama ǃnoe-s heet, 'der Hak- jesdorn' (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 298), volgens Ponnighaus 1931 Joernaal 6 14 Inoebusch, die Acacia detinens, ook Smith 1966 CNSAP 450 s.v. swarthaak (doring). In Afrikaans het die inlandse naam oorgegaan tot nooibos (vgl. Coetzee se spelling), ook noebos (Smith 351), en kom in plekname voor, kyk o.a. NOOI(BOS) en NOIB. Die Coetzee’s se afleiding verdien voorkeur. Daar is ook ’n riviertjie met die naam Nuichas op dieselfde plek.
