Yes it's a misconception which arises from the similarity between the two languages. Reality is putting garba in front of the name of cities is quite common in somali culture. Here is couple of examples of such city names or place names.

Garba dheer, garba qabad, garba xato, garba ciisa, garba cad, garba goof and of course garba hare where hare is from har and probably means with shades.

Haray harysan.
