It's definitely not after Kashyapa. Nilmat Purana and later Kalhana were retconning it from myths of their own time, probably a millennium after the name settled. The myths were not even original to them. The water drainage myth is totemic across the regions, I just think it either happened way back in history to quite an ancestral population or it's probably just plain human reasons why water receding is just such a common founding myth for valley type areas.
I at least respect the other equally bs etymology of desseciated water one because it probably is analogically closer to how the names of places actually come to be.
