Some recent studies say rather that it was called Bayazid in the name of the Jalarid Sultan Ahmad's brother, a Mongol then, in the 14th/15th century.

The original KURDISH name of Dogubeyazit, as the elders and inhabitants of the city can tell you, is actually BAVÎZÎD, which means father of the Yizîdîs! It was changed to Beyazid during the time of the Ottomans!
So use Bavîzîd, not Dogubeyazit, Beyazit or Beyazîd!
