Name edit

Želimlje was attested in written sources in 1300 as Schelein (and as Salein in 1318 and 1326, Zelein in 1321, and Seleym in 1436). The name is originally a possessive adjective, shortened from *Želimľe (selo) (literally, 'Želimъ's village'). Today the name is declined either as a neuter singular adjective (Želímlje -ega) or as a feminine plural noun (Želímlje -melj). The originally neuter singular adjective was reanalyzed as an accusative plural, and then as a feminine nominative plural. The personal name Želimъ is a hypocorism from a name such as *Želimirъ, preserved today in the Slovene name Željko.[6]

Church edit

 
Saint Vitus's Church

The local parish church is dedicated to Saint Vitus and belongs to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Ljubljana. It was built between 1882 and 1884.[7]
