Strymon was a Scythian man. If we throw the first S (S-mobile of Indo Europeans?) then we have Trymon. It sounds like Turkic "Toraman" meaning very big. We know that the suffix -man is a very old Turkic intensifying suffix meaning "a lot, huge amount of..., many, very".
Like Saruman (look at Saruman in Lord of the Rings) means in Turkish "very white".

Ugoroi: a Scythian tribe.
Pauly says:
"There are experts who deny the identity of this people." (see first sentence).
Ugor/Ogur are the same, aren't they?
Ogur is a Turkic word meaning simply 'the tribe'.
There are many Ogurs:
For instance On ogur > Hungary
Or Kutrigur, etc...
*
Iastei
A Scythian tribe (of Indo German origin?)
Would say they could have been Turkic, too.
*
Yas could be Turkic "yaş" meaning green, fresh.
Turkic "yaz" on the other hand means "summer" and the verb "yas-" means "to make flat"
Tai means mountain. (like in Tau-rus).
Now "Iastai" (Yastai) could be
Flat Mountain
Green Mountain
Summer Mountain
or the tribes from there.
*
Edoi (Ἠδοί)
A Scythian tribe
Look at the Turkic word: edi/idi, meaning host, owner, master.
*
Gargareis: a Scythian tribe
Karga(garga): crow, probably from kara: black
Garga er? Crow men?
*
Geloni: A Scythian tribe
Turkic YILAN?: snake
*
Gnissi, a Scythian tribe
Güneş/Küneş means in Turkish "the day or the sun".
Other meanings in other dialects are "sunny place, hot place"
*
Gorgippia: Ancient city on the Black Sea, called after the Scythian Tribe that lived there.
Turkic Korku: the fear (like on Gorgon)
