The name for this important node on the old journey is usually and from Oudord in Afrikaans. The Afr. Name translates the old Khoekhozen name, whose ingredients are like at Hahnǃ Uri = white, and ╪ga-b = marsh. There were two marshes, 'Groot-Witvlei', just called Witvlei today, and 'little Witvlei' further along the Witnossob. In place of -╪ga-B, the inlanders also said Ikhuwi, look Urikubebb.

Die naam vir hierdie belangrike knooppunt op die ou togpad is gewoonlik en van oudsher in Afrikaans weergegee. Die Afr. naam vertaal die ou Khoekhoense naam, waarvan die bestanddele is soos by Hahn, ǃuri = wit, en ╪ga-b = vlei. Daar was twee vleie, 'Groot-Witvlei', vandag net Witvlei genoem, en 'Klein Witvlei' verder langs die Witnossob af. In die plek van -╪ga-b het die inlanders sommige kere ook gesê Ikhuwi-, kyk URIKUBEB. Die koppies net ten noorde van Groot-Witvlei ontleen hulle naam aan die vlei; Hall se Hurri- is sy weergawe van ǃUri-, sy -kop kan egter ’n onbedoelde verandering van die lid - ╪ga-b wees om aan te pas by die horn ongetwyfeld bekende Afrikaanse '-kop(pies)' waaroor hy dit hier het.
