Yes. From the Branch-Names-art file:
"Cynagua - Derived from the Spanish sin agua ”no water” as this  
Principality is in California’s Central Valley, which is a desert.[4]"

Also, earlier I mentioned Caid but couldn't remember the founding  
groups. This same article says:
"Caid - Both an acronym of the four founding baronies (Califia,  
Angles, Isles, Dreibergen) and means “fortress” in Arabic. The crown  
prince of Caid is referred to as al-Caid which means “commander of the  
fortress”. [4]"
