In this case , regarding the definition of "eponim" ( the one who gives
his name to a city), it should mean that the word "Ban" was just the
name of someone and not a word with a specialy meaning in a certain
language.

Why should sincoped the form "bayan" to "ban"? If the meaning of "bayan"
was "imperator" what should have mean "ban" in this case? Just a
question. "Ban" is not a panslavic word. It is known just in bulgarian
and serbo-croatian. Which is the meaning , the actually meaning of "ban"
there?

"Obrenovac" sounds to be slavic but "banulla" don't seems so. Maybe
Piotr will show us if an "-ola" could give "-ulla".
