Die riviertjie loop uit ’n suidwestelike rigting suid van Rehoboth verby na die Visrivier op 2417 AA. Die -b se hier dat dit die naam van ’n rivier is, soos die ml. ekv. se genusuitgang gewoonlik doen. Afgaande op die klank is denkbaar 'Beesvlakte', van goma- = bees, en ai- = gesig, oppervlakte, vlakte (vgl. Kr.-R. 1969 NW resp. 110 en 60, lg. s.v. eis), waardeur die rivier kan stroom. Die rivier het egter twee inlandse name. Dit is ook bekend as Homeib, by Hahn 1879 kaart IHomeib. Indien die g- en h- hier afwissel, soos dikwels kan gebeur, dan is die grondwoord ǃGoma-ai-b. ǃGom(a)- en ǃHom(-)- kan op soveel verskillende wyses verklaar word dat mens hier aanknopingspunte moet he, en dit ontbreek voorlopig nog.
