Trobelno (pronounced [tɾɔˈbeːu̯nɔ], in older sources Trobevno;[2] German: Trobeuno[2]) is a small dispersed settlement in the hills above the Tuhinj Valley in the Municipality of Kamnik in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.

Name

[edit]

The origin of the name Trobelno is uncertain. It may derive from the same root as Slovene trebelje (< *trobeljȅ) 'swamp ragwort', referring to the local vegetation. Another possibility is derivation from the Slavic personal name *Trěbelъ. The place name may share the same origin as Trebelno and Trebelno pri Palovčah, based on medieval attestations of those names.[3]
