Νακόλεια, πόλις Φρυγίας. Στράβων δωδεκάτῃ. καί ἐστιν οὐδέτερον. ἀπὸ Νακόλης νύμφης. καὶ ὥσπερ ἀπὸ τοῦ νύμφης νύμφαιον καὶ Ἥρας Ἥραιον, οὕτω Νακόλης Νακόλαιον. τὸ ἐθνικὸν Νακολαιεύς. εἰ δ´ ἔστι Νακόλεια διὰ διφθόγγου, παρὰ τὸν Νάκολον τὸν Δασκύλου παῖδα, τὸ ἐθνικὸν ἔσται Νακολεύς, ὡς τὸ Σέλευκος Σελευκεύς.

Nakolia: a city of Phrygia. Strabo book 12. The name is also neuter, derived from Nakolē the nymph; and just as from “nymph” comes Nymphaion and from Hēra comes Hēraion, so from Nakolē comes Nakolaion. The ethnic is Nakolaius. But if the form is Nakoleia with a diphthong, from Nakolos, son of Daskylos, the ethnic will be Nakoleus, just as from Seleukos comes Seleukeus.
