Ons het die naam van plaas nr 654 bespreek in TH A** 1083. Uitsab is ’n verlate myn, geleë oostelik van Otavi in 'n berglandskap. Wat nou bykom, is die vertolking van die tweede deel -tsa- as synde soos Nama tsa = 'sch- wimmen' (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 378). letterlik dan 'Klipswem', d.w.s. die 'Plek (-b-) by die klip (ǀui-) waar geswem (-tsa) word'. Ui-tsa-b of 'Klipswem' is onomasties ’n toelaatbare bousel in Nama.
