From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Anathoth
      the name of one of the cities of refuge, in the tribe of
      Benjamin (Josh. 21:18). The Jews, as a rule, did not change the
      names of the towns they found in Palestine; hence this town may
      be regarded as deriving its name from the goddess Anat. It was
      the native place of Abiezer, one of David's "thirty" (2 Sam.
      23:27), and of Jehu, another of his mighty men (1 Chr. 12:3). It
      is chiefly notable, however, as the birth-place and usual
      residence of Jeremiah (Jer. 1:1; 11:21-23; 29:27; 32:7-9). It
      suffered greatly from the army of Sennacherib, and only 128 men
      returned to it from the Exile (Neh. 7:27; Ezra 2:23). It lay
      about 3 miles north of Jerusalem. It has been identified with
      the small and poor village of 'Anata, containing about 100
      inhabitants.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Antothite
      an inhabitant of Anathoth, found only in 1 Chr. 11:28; 12:3. In
      2 Sam. 23:27 it is Anethothite; in 1 Chr. 27:12, Anetothite.
