The name derives from a vernacular root recorded in early pilgrimage itineraries and administrative registers compiled by scribes associated with Ottoman Empire regional bureaux and later by clerks in publications tied to the British Empire consular network.

Comparative studies cite parallels in lexemes preserved in inscriptions examined by scholars from the University of Oxford, the University of Cambridge, and the Sorbonne University.
