It is also possible that there was an original river or lake name *Leitā, from which *leitā-tyā, *leityā > leiša, from which the nominative leitis could be derived.

From earlier *kreiv-, from a Slavic stem *kriv-, which has the same source as Latvian kreiss (“left”) (q.v.). At first this was the name of a Baltic tribe that lived in the area near Pskov, an area also inhabited by many Slavs (ancestors of today's Russians), who were likewise called “kriviči” (Old East Slavic кривичи (kriviči)). Old Latvians (initially Latgalians) therefore used the name *kreivi > krievi to refer not only to the neighboring Baltic tribe, but also to their Slavic neighbors, and later on generalized it to all Russians. More at Krivichs.

Cognates include Lithuanian vókietis. There are different theories about the origin of this word. Some suggest that it comes from a place name, Latvian Vāca, Lithuanian Vókia, which would originally have referred to some region in Sweden, from which the word was borrowed, probably before the 12th century, since it underwent palatalization (*vākyā > vāca). A 6th-century source mentions a Southeastern Swedish tribe called Vagoth, perhaps from *vāki(ā) + -goth. There are, however, no Swedish language sources that support the existence of a region of Sweden named Vakya or something similar. For this reason, others have suggested that the word vāca was originally a collective or ethnic term, later reinterpreted as a place name (and from which vāci, and later vācietis, could be derived). Its source would be Proto-Indo-European *wekʷ- (“to speak”), whence Old Prussian wackis ([vakis], “shout, war cry”), Sanskrit वक्ति (vákti, “to speak, to say”), Ancient Greek ἔπος (épos, “word, talk, song”) (< *wépos), Latin vox (“voice, sound, talk”). This stem might have been used to form a word (perhaps *vākyā-) to designate foreigners, meaning originally something like “those who speak loud, shout (unintelligibly)” — cf. Ancient Greek βάρβαρος (bárbaros, “Barbarian, foreigner (who says bar-bar)”), or Russian не́мец (némec, “German”), from Old East Slavic нѣмьць (němĭcĭ, “foreigner, one who does not speak clearly”), from нѣмъ (němŭ, “mute”).

gruzīn (singular vocative)
gruzīni (plural vocative)

Derived from Russian грузи́нъ (gruzín), (given the non-Latvian suffix -īn), itself probably from the Persian designation of Georgians as Gurjhān and the country as Gurjistan (compare Russian Гру́зия (Grúzija)), which stemmed from the Ancient Iranian and Middle Persian vrkān/waručān, possibly a variant form of varkân “land of the wolves.” The Western forms, like English Georgia, result from folk etymology associating the Persian forms with Latin Geōrgius, from Ancient Greek Γεώργιος (Geṓrgios), from γεωργός (geōrgós, “farmer”), and have been sometimes connected to the name of Saint George.
