The statement like Aroam, just with the genus index FEM. Sing, - for a water location from which the place got its name. In Adressbuch 1939, this place is stated as 'Bastardgebiet', in the farm list for Rehoboth now as farms No. 315 and 317. On S 2319, there is a 'water post' Aroams (survey-SWA, Leonardville). Everyone has the same meaning, as far as we have inquired. 'Water place at or surrounded by waiting-a-bit trees'.

Die verklaring soos by AROAM, nou net met die genusindeks fem. sing, -s vir ’n waterplek waarvandaan die plek sy naam gekry het. In Adressbuch 1939 word hierdie plek aangegee as 'Bastardgebiet', in die plaaslys vir Rehoboth nou as plase nr 315 en 317. Op S 2319 is daar ’n 'Waterpos' Aroams (Opmeting-SWA, blad leonardville). Almal het dieselfde betekenis, sover as ons navraag gegaan het. 'Waterplek by of omring deur wag-’n-bietjiebome'.
