Etymology.
In Arabic, "umm" is translated to "mother", and is a common prefix that is attached to a name in order to signify a geographical feature. The second constituent is derived from "ghulan", the Arabic name for a local plant. Ghulan is part of the "Hammada" genus of plants and is commonly used as fodder for camels.
