Mustānum

Livonian Etymology This toponym also appears comparably late (like liv Kūolka and liv Kuoštrõg) and it is difficult to determine in which language it originated [the Latvian and Livonian versions are semantically identical]. V. Kiparsky has suggested that its earlier name might have been the Baltic Sareyken mentioned in 16th century documents as a populated place between Ģipka and Kolka.Kersti Boiko, Ziemeļkurzemes piekrastes lībiešu ciemu vietvārdi in Kersti Boiko's Lībieši – rakstu krājums, pages 220-221 Morphologically from liv mustā num black pine forest.
