Etymology
First attested as in gannite in 790-793. Etymology uncertain. Proposed derivations from gem-pro *ganda- wide, widened, gem-pro *gan-ita confluence of two rivers or from a term cognate to non gandr straight current are not backed up by the oldest attestations of the toponym. Compare nl Gent.
