BOLOHOV

The town of Lubar, which itself is a combination of the Kartvelian root "lub" with the Svan plural suffix, is located in the Bolohov land. In Georgian, "balakhi" (ბალახი) means "grass", and "boloki" (ბოლოკი) means "radish". Any of these roots can be present in a toponym (by adding the Megrelian genitive "-ოუ" suffix), although a bit far-fetched.

But it can be also "ბოლო ხი" (bolo hi), which means "the last people (nation)". This would seem quite impeccable: ბოლოხოუ.
