Name Gorenje was attested in historical sources as Goreynach in 1385, Kôrench 1400, and Goreyne in 1458, among other spellings. The name Gorenje is shared by several settlements in Slovenia. It arose through ellipsis of Gorenje selo (literally, 'upper village'), denoting the elevation of the place in relation to a neighboring settlement. Gorenje stands about higher than Suša, the nearest neighboring village.
