Folk etymology claims that "Murgap" comes from the Turkmen root words "mur" - "water" as in "yagmur/yagmyr", literally translated as "drops of water" or "raindrops", plus "gap", a dish or box, denoting the land as a place with water. However, Atanyyazow explains that the name is of Persian, not Turkic, origin; it was in earlier times Margab, and that later, as a result of folk ethnology, the first syllable's "a" sound was replaced by a "u", making "murg ab", "bird water". Atanyyazow notes as well that Hafiz-i-Abru recorded in the 15th century that the name was originally Merab, "River of Merv", and that al-Istakhri wrote, "...this river was named after the place where it flowed," and thus ultimately comes from an ancient variant name of the city of Mary.
