If you click here, that will link you to a web-page which seems to suggest the local name may be "T'ana Hayk". Could that be what you are looking for? Once on the new page, scroll about halfway down and read the section headed 'Notes on Ethiopia's Geography'.
The impression I get from Wraith's link is that Tisissat - "Water that smokes" must be the name of the Blue Nile Falls and not the lake itself.
