Hauneib' is die naam van 'n kop ongeveer 23 km wes van Rehoboth. Dit is op die plaas 'Spitskop' nr 314. In sulke gevalle vind ons dikwels dat die Khoekhoense en Afrikaanse name ’n verband met mekaar het; ons meen daar is hier ook ’n semantiese verband. In TH A** 537 s.v. HAUNEIB, daar die naam van ’n koppie tussen Keetmanshoop en Stampriet. dus op 2618 CA, het ons die naam verklaar as 'Gespantou', want die spitskop 'het ’n formasie wat die indruk wek dat daar 'n band horisontaal om horn le, of hy gespan is soos ’n koei wat gemelk gaan word'. Dit lyk vir ons asof daar by die spitskop wes van Rehoboth presies dieselfde argument kan geld. Dan is hierdie Hauneib ook soos Nama ǃhou [ǃhau] = om ’n koei te span, en 11nai = om die spantou om te sit. In algemene terme gesê, laat dit dink asof daar om die berg ’n band is, ’n 'Bandom'.
