Baku Case - Competition for Old harbour

The name Baku is widely believed to be derived from the old Persian names of the city باد-کوبه Bād-kube, meaning “Wind-pounded city”, in which bād means “wind” and kube is rooted in the verb کوبیدن kubidan, “to pound”, thus referring to a place where wind is strong and pounding.
