"Awati" is transliterated in Uygur language, meaning "prosperity". The area of Awati County used to be called "Duolang" and was the hometown of "Duolang people" (ancient Uygur tribes). Later, a large number of farmers emigrated here, with a sudden increase in population, a wide range of arable land and a changing face, so they changed their name to Awati.
