eng Oddly enough, the naman is not on Dr Hahn's 1879 card. In first instance, this is the name of the river, the 'Gross Omaruru'. The other related to it is completed.

afr Vreemd genoeg kom die Namanaam nie op dr Hahn se kaart van 1879 voor nie. In eerste instansie geld dit hier die naam van die rivier, die 'Gross Omaruru'. Die ander verbandhoudendes is daarvan afgelêi. Ons het in ons literatuur nerens 'n verklaring raakgeleës nie, ook nerens ’n aan- duiding gekry oor 'n suigkonsonant nie. Krenz FK 1977 Boer Gesprek het in ’n ander verband op Nama ǀǀei [ǀǀai] = 'der Zorn' (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 62) as ’n vertrekpunt gewys, in mnr Krenz se eie woorde 'boosaardig- heid'. Dit kan op die rivier betrek word wanneer dit na 'n groot reen sterk afkom en oor sy groot breedte alles meesleur. Die -si-, -se-, -zi- is spellings van ’n lokatiewe morfeem, die -b (ml. ekv.) het aanwysende waarde, in die besonder by rivier- en bergname. Die verklaring met die 'Boosaardige' berus dan op klankassosiatiwe waarskynlikheid wat ook logies denkbaar lyk. Haacke WHG 1979 Onderwysbeplanner skryf hierby ’n Aantekening oor ’n wisseluitspraak van die eerste lid: 'Op H. von Francois se kaart in Nama und Damara verskyn die rivier as Eisib. Ek het egter aanvaar dat die eintlike naam ╪Eseb is, vgl. bv. ’n prysgedig op die Omarururivier deur lukas ǃUmub van Okombahe: ‘ + Eseb Kares’.
