Die oorspronklike naam volgens die formulier wat vir die PNK ingevul is, was Itzawisis. Dit moet ’n vergissing aan die kant van dr Vedder gewees het dat hy die eerste element, die I-, verontagsaam het en gehandel het asof dit nie daar is nie. Daarom sy vreemde verklaring. Die juiste verklaring is die van dr Budack, vgl. ITZAWISIS. Die stasie Tsawisis, op die plaas Itsawisis nr 9, le 40 km nood van Keetmanshoop, nog in die distrik Keetmanshoop.
