The site claims that the etymology of this word is ”Unknown, various assumptions connect it to Dacian”. Dacian is presumed to have been a language of which not one word survived. It is pseudo-scientific to claim the connection to ”Dacian.” The claim is predicated on a highly dubious book cited as a reference which places the discussion in political territory. The Romanian-Hungarian controversy over etymologies should be referenced instead. IN this case, it is almost certain that the etymology is of Magyar or Hungarian origin, but it has been connected to spurious etymologies by the Romanians for political reasons even though Romanians have politically administered the entire region in which the river is based for over a century.
