Lawyacado (Lowyacaddo, Lawya Cado, Lawya Caddo, Lowya Cadde) is a town in the Awdal region of Somaliland. It is situated on the border with Djibouti.
The town across the border in Djibouti is Loyada, a name derived from the Afar language, which when rewritten in Somali style becomes Lawyacado. That sounds like with a white calf in Somali speaking.: 212
