Hierdie Mooirivier is ’n stroompie wat deur Ariams nr 27 loop, bokant Duurdrift-Nord, distrik Karasburg. Volgens die gegewe verklaring is die grondwoord te verbind met Nama ǀu = 'nicht wissen, nicht kennen' (Kr.- R. 1969 NW 366), waarvan die ouer vorm die (nog) gevelariseerde ǀgu is. Aangeheg is die passiewe suffiks -he-, gevolg deur die -s van die fern. sing. Die 'Onbekend-geworde'. Ook die rede vir die naam het onbekend geword.
