Etymology of "Djibouti"

The country name Djibouti has no etymology listed on both Etymonline and Wiktionary. I do know that's it named after the city for sure, but where did that come from?

I tried to research it, but all I could find was an unreliable forum listing it as named after a French general (Somalinet.com) and an unhelpful Quora answer ambiguously and without detail explaining it as either Egyptian or Afar.

I don't have the OED; what does that say? Is there any reliable research on this? Thanks.

There is no reliable etymology on this name. The following African Heritage site offers the two more common assumptions about its origin:

• The first one is based on an ancient Issa legend whereby the name Djibouti (Jab Bouti) came from a fabulous animal Bouti which used to live in those areas and was a ferocious beast killing goats, and sheeps, and terrorizing people. After a relentless hunt, the men defeated the beast, and named the area Jab Bouti or the Bouti’s defeat.

• The second version comes from the Afar people. The Afar named the current region of Djibouti Gabod (plateaux or uplands). The Arab sailors called it Gabouti, and later on, the French turned it into Djibouti.
