Etymology The name ''Gavojdia'' has its origin in the Latin ''quvae'' which means "hills" and ''sideo'' which means "settlement", which would translate as "settlement between hills". There is another theory according to which ''Gavojdia'' has its origin in the Slavic ''gvojd'' which means "iron" and ''gvojde'' which means "blacksmith", since there were many blacksmiths serving the interests of landowners and those who traveled by stagecoach here.

Tributary
A tributary, or an ''affluent'', is a stream or river that flows into a larger stream (''main stem'' or ''"parent"''), river, or a lake. A tributary does not flow directly into a sea or ocean. Tributaries, and the main stem river into which they flow, drain the surrounding drainage basin of its surface water and groundwater, leading the water out into an ocean, another river, or into an endorheic basin. The Irtysh is a chief tributary of the Ob (river), Ob river and is also the longest tributary river in the world with a length of . The Madeira River is the largest tributary river by volume in the world with an average discharge of . A confluence, where two or more bodies of water meet, usually refers to the joining of tributaries.
