Logaške Žibrše (pronounced [lɔˈɡaːʃkɛ ˈʒiːbəɾʃɛ], in older sources Žiberše,[1] German: Sibersche[1]) is a former village in western Slovenia in the Municipality of Logatec. It is now part of the village of Žibrše. It is part of the traditional region of Inner Carniola and is now included in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region.
Name
The name Logaške Žibrše means 'Žibrše in the Logatec direction'. The name Logaške Žibrše was used to distinguish the settlement from neighboring Blekovske Žibrše (i.e., 'Žibrše in the Blekova Vas direction') and Hotenjske Žibrše ('Žibrše in the Hotedršica direction'), as well as Rovtarske Žibrše ('Žibrše in the Rovte direction') to the north. The name Žibrše itself is derived from the Middle High German personal name Sîvrid 'Siegfried', referring to an early inhabitant of the place.[3]
