Zgornje Gorje (Zgornje Gorje)
Zgornje Gorje is a village and the administrative centre of the Municipality of Gorje in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.
The name Zgornje Gorje literally means 'upper Gorje', distinguishing the settlement from neighboring Spodnje Gorje (literally, 'lower Gorje'). The two settlements were attested in Latin in 1050–65 as in loco qui dicitur Summitas campi and in loco qui dicitur z Obinentigemo uelde (both 'in the place called top of the field'). The name Gorje is derived from the plural demonym *Gorjane 'mountain residents', derived from the common noun gora 'mountain'.
