Moldova (accusative definite nominative)
Moldove (indefinite)
Moldovei (definite)
Moldovă (vocative)
Moldovo (vocative)
Молдова (alternative)

Of unclear origin. The suffix -ova is probably of Slavic origin. Theories about the first element:
* It is possibly ultimately from Gothic 𐌼𐌿𐌻𐌳𐌰 (mulda, “dust, mud”) (possibly Moldavia); compare the river Mulde in Germany and Moldau, the German name of the river Vltava, which may be of related origin.
* Alternatively, it may be related to Romanian molid (“spruce”), though the loss of the i in this word is difficult to explain.
* A folk etymology, according to Dimitrie Cantemir, says the name of the Moldova River comes from Prince Dragoș, after his hound Molda, who drowned in it while attempting to hunt an aurochs.
* The Romanian people may have called themselves "Moldoveni" or "Munteni" (literally "of the mountains") so Moldova may alternatively derive from a Thracian-Illyrian language, from *mol (“mountain”) + *dava (“town”).

Borrowed from Turkish Abdullahköy, from Abdullah + köy (“village”).

(historical) a village in Constanța County, in eastern Romania. Renamed to Potârnichea.


Drobeta-Turnu Severin

Previously known as Turnu Severin, from turn (“tower”) + Severin, possibly from Old Church Slavonic сѣверьнъ (sěverĭnŭ, “northern”), from сѣверъ (sěverŭ, “north”), referring to its geographical position within the Second Bulgarian Empire.
The city's name was originally linked by historians with the Roman Emperor Septimius Severus, during whose reign the name of the city was Drobeta Septimia Severiana. Another possible theory, is that Severin's name was taken in memory of Severinus of Noricum, who was the patron saint of the medieval colony Turnu, initially a suffragan of the Diocese of Kalocsa.
Drobeta, which was the ancient Roman name for the city, was added back to the city's name in 1972.
 According to Hamp and Hyllested, Drobeta reflects a Roman misinterpretation of *Druwā-tā (the wooden place) with a postposed article, reflecting an old Albanian syntag for wood dru from Proto-Albanian *druwa-tai
