Genesis 26:20-22

20the herdsmen of Gerar 1quarreled with the herdsmen of Isaac, saying, “The water is ours!” So he named the well 2Esek, because they argued with him. 21Then they dug another well, and they quarreled over it too, so he named it 3Sitnah. 22Then he moved away from there and dug another well, and they did not quarrel over it; so he named it 4Rehoboth, for he said, “56At last the Lord has made 7room for us, and we will be 8fruitful in the land.”
