Bohinjska Češnjica (pronounced [bɔˈxiːnska ˈtʃeːʃnjitsa]) is a settlement in the Municipality of Bohinj in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.
Name[edit]
The name Bohinjska Češnjica literally means 'Češnjica in the Bohinj region'. The village was attested in historical sources as Chersdorf in 1253, Cherstorff in 1464, and Kersdorff in 1494.[2][3] Like similar names (e.g., Češnjice, Češnjevek, Črešnjevci, etc.), the name is derived from the common noun češnja 'wild cherry', referring to the local vegetation.[3] The name of the settlement was changed from Češnjica to Bohinjska Češnjica in 1952.[4]
