Pastdargom is the name of the village and district in Samarkand province. The second component of the toponym is Dargom - an ancient canal, brook that comes from the Zarafshan River is about 100 km lengths. Starting from the "First May" dam of Zarafshan River, it ends in the desert of the Ulus. Historical sources say that the brook was excavated in the V-IV centuries BC.

On the card created by Claudius Ptolemy (II century), this name is mentioned Dargomoniy style. The first component of the toponym is Darg "long" and the second part is “om” the changed form of “ob”. Because the sound of the "b" and "m" sound is encountered.

Hence, Dargom or Dargob means "long or big water" (Dusimov Z., Egamov Kh.  A short description of  place names, T: Teacher, 1977, p. 48).
