Etymology of Neorautanenia:
La. neo- = new. For Martti Rautanen (1845–1926), Russian-born Lutheran church missionary and pioneer of the Finnish Mission Society, who in 1868 went to South-West Africa (specifically Ovamboland in present-day Namibia), where he served more than 50 years and was the director of the missionary station. His most important work was the translation of the Bible into Oshindonga, a Herero language. He greatly assisted the botanist Dr Hans Schinz during his expedition through South-West Africa (1884–1887), and the two became firm friends. He amassed a significant collection of ethnography materials, which are now housed at the National Museum of Finland, and sent plants that he collected to the University of Zurich.
