“Pampoenkraal was renamed D’Urban after the Cape governor, Sir Benjamin D’Urban. This led to confusion with Durban in Natal, and the name was changed again to Durbanville.” - Chris Smit, 2024/07/23

“The early Dutch Settler name for Durbanville, was Pampoenkraal (from the Dutch pampoen meaning pumpkin, and kraal meaning an enclosure for livestock It was established around a spring in early in 1800 and served as a watering station for travelers between Cape Town and the interior.” - Chris Smit, 2024/06/03
