"Olt" meaning in Romanian

See Olt in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /olt/ Audio: LL-Q7913 (ron)-KlaudiuMihaila-Olt.wav Forms: Oltului [dative, genitive], no-table-tags [table-tags], Olt [accusative, indefinite, nominative], Oltul [accusative, definite, nominative], Olt [error-unrecognized-form, indefinite], Oltului [definite, error-unrecognized-form], Oltule [vocative]
Etymology: Uncertain. The name has been used since the ancient times, but the phonetic change a > o appears to indicate that the word reached Romanian through a Slavic intermediary (similar to the change from acetum to oțet). Direct inheritance from Latin would have yielded *Arută. Ancient recorded variants include: Ancient Greek Aλoύτα (Aloúta) (Strabo), Ancient Greek Aλoύταζ (Aloútaz) (Ptolemaios), Latin Alutus (Tabula Peutingeriana).
