The trivia is incorrect. Turkish word Kavat has nothing to do with king Kavadh's name. It is a turkicized version of an Arabic word, "Qav'vad" or "ghav'vad" meaning either "pimp" or a "cuckold who does not care". Since the person who wrote the piece got it all wrong, I am removing the trivia. -- Mrjahan
