But a lot of these names seem to be manufactured words that are intended to sound foreign and exotic, and thus cool. For instance, Herman Miller has just introduced the "Motia" Gaming Desk [1]. They don't offer an explanation for what "Motia" means, and I can't seem to Google/DDG the meaning, because search results in my location are overwhelmed by the colloquial meaning of "motia" in Hindi and Urdu. That meaning is "cataract", an unfortunate name for a gaming desk that goes out of its way to reduce eye strain by sporting a matte, anti-glare finish.

I think that's why it is used in cataract where eyes look like pearls.
So the meaning depends on which context you used the word in.
