MUKHNARI = MUKH + N + AR + I
Interestingly, sometimes the word mukhnari is crooked into mukhrani:

But if can do this with oaks, why not do the same with fir-trees?
In Nazaret entry we assumes that naz might mean fir-tree. So, naznari would means place of fir-trees. But if we crook it the way we did with oaks, we'll end up having NAZRANI. That's exactly the name of Ingushetian capital - НАЗРАНЬ. Note that even the soft sign corresponds to Kartvelian nominative case i-ending.
