Sudd - The real meaning from Timesharetalk wikipedia(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
There are three main waterways through the swamp; the Bahr-el-Zaraf ("River of the Giraffes"), the Bahr el Ghazal ("River of the Gazelles"), and the BahralJabal, which is the main connection to the Mountain Nile.
Because of the Sudd swamp, the water from the southwestern tributaries (the Bahr el Ghazal system) for all practical purposes does not reach the main river and is lost through evaporation and transpiration.
Hydrogeologists in the early part of the 20th century proposed digging a canal east of the Sudd which would divert water from the BahralJabal above the Sudd to a point farther down the White Nile, bypassing the swamps and carrying the White Nile's water's directly to the main channel of the river.
It then flows into Sudan, where it becomes known as the BahralJabal.
At the confluence of the BahralJabal with the Bahral Ghazal, itself 720 km (445 miles) long, the river beomes known as the Bahral Abyad, or the White Nile, from the clay suspended in its waters.
Meanwhile, the Blue Nile (or Bahral Azraq) springs from Lake Tana in the Ethiopian Highlands.

The motion for the change of the name was raised in January by Nehemiah Lasu Sei and seconded by three members of the Assembly, two representing the SPLM and one representing the South Sudan United Democratic Salvation Front (UDSF).
Sei said the name of Bahr al-Jabal, by which the state is currently officially known and addressed, was never approved by the citizens of the state.
The Assembly members noted that the state is part and parcel of the equatorial zone, which stretches from the Lowii river in eastern Kapoeta to the Bo river in Tambura, Western Equatoria State, from which the name Equatoria derives.
