Well we know that the Garleans originate from the Ilsabard (Northeast of Aldenard / Eorzea) and we've been told that Othard is the eastern-most continent. A lot of the Garlean titles and names seem connected to Roman Empire or latin origins. If not Latin it's, taken from an Anonymoose post, "pre-Latin Proto-Indo-European"

Ilsabard is north of Eorzea, Othard is the one to the north-east (we can even see a part of it shrouded in clouds on the Eorzea map labeled "The Garlean Empire").
