Name
The name Spodnje Negonje means 'lower Negonje', distinguishing the village from neighboring Zgornje Negonje (literally, 'upper Negonje'), which lies at an elevation about 210 meters (690 ft) higher. The name Negonje is probably a possessive form of the personal name *Negojinъ, elided from *Negojin'e (selo) 'Negojinъ's (village)', referring to an early inhabitant of the place.[3]
