Where this word comes from

Possibly from karja (potentially through varieties of Estonian), through the name of the lake Karjaanjärvi from scarcely attested dialectal karjas (“boisterous, rapid, loud; rutty, lustful”) (possibly onomatopoeic or derived from karja), or from a dialectal adjective karea (“dry, hard”) (akin to karkea). Alternatively, possibly borrowed from Proto-Germanic *harjaz.
