Aitou
With a qāf added at the beginning, as Qaitou, the name could mean in Aramaic 'summer', 'heat' or 'boar'. It is equivalent to the Arabic qaiz (قيظ), meaning 'canicule' or 'heat wave', and to Hebrew qayits (קיץ) meaning 'summer'. It could refer to Aitou being used as a summer resort, given the town's location at a high elevation, yet only 27 km from the Mediterranean coast.
