RE: I got out the other day and was excited to be outdoor from the lockdown.
I'm sure the road was named after Potgieter, I really do not know the meaning of the name ☺

Well, pot = ‘pot’ in english and ‘gieter’ can have various meanings, but in this case it’ll probably by ‘caster’. Basically someone who casts pots. Maybe iron pots or something like that.
Interesting meaning, thanks for breaking it down ☺
Hahaha your welcome 🙃 To me Afrikan language is very interesting. Lots of Dutch words we either don’t use anymore and more kinda Dutch words, but evolved ones from old Dutch. At least that is my impression since I’m not at all a specialist in Old Dutch and Afrikan language 🙃
