Etymology

This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “uk:Кадіївка gives the (synchronic?) etymology Каді́й- (Kadíj-, root) +‎ -ів -к (-iv-k, suffixes) +‎ -а (-a, ending).

etymological speculation concerning possible relations

I don’t know what Каді́й- (Kadíj-) represents. Structurally, there is ка́дій m anim (kádij, noun), but I don’t know what it means, and there is also ка́діїв (kádijiv, adjective), in case Вікісловника etymology is indeed synchronic, but I don’t know what that means, either. Semantically, there exist кади́ло n inan (kadýlo, “censer”, noun) and кади́ти impf (kadýty, “?burn incense, ?fumigate”, verb), which are both related to чад m inan (čad, “smoke, fumes”, noun), to which family of words we may expect Кадіївка to be related, given that “There were thirty coal mines in Kadiivka Raion.” (according to w:en:Kadiivka Raion#Economy, which cites «З 30 шахт Кадіївського району 15 шахт було введено в експлуатацію після революції.»). I note that entries for the Ukrainian suffixes -ів (-iv) and -ка (-ka) both exist, whereas -івка (-ivka), whose entry is as yet uncreated, occurs in very many Ukrainian placenames.

Whatever the etymology, compare the very similarly spelt Кади́ївка (Kadýjivka).”
