Kutch literally means something which intermittently becomes wet and dry; a large part of this district is known as [[Rann of Kutch]] which is shallow [[wetland]] which submerges in water during the rainy season and becomes dry during other seasons. The same word is also used in [[Sanskrit]] origin for a tortoise. The Rann is famous for its marshy [[Salt pan (geology)|salt flats]] which become snow white after the shallow water dries up each season before the [[monsoon]] rains.
