Lehite GN | City, ca. 6 BC (3 Nephi 9:8) |
Most likely the name is composed of gād, “fortune, luck, riches,” and with a second element, either -IOMNAH or -OMNAH, depending of whether the “i” is read as the 1st common singular possessive suffix or as part of the next element. The -OMNAH/IOMNAH remains unexplained, unless related to AMMON, OMNI.
