Name
The name of the settlement was changed from Jamnica to Zgornja Jamnica (literally, 'upper Jamnica') in 1955.[3] This corresponded to the name change of Šentanel to Spodnja Jamnica (literally, 'lower Jamnica') the same year. The name Jamnica was restored in 1998.[4]
gollark: I basically just want shoes which stay on my feet, without lace fiddling.
gollark: … like using more annoying shoes? why?
gollark: Laces are just annoying and inefficient.
gollark: I am so annoyed at the lack of reasonably large Velcro shoes.
gollark: Oh, and even if people stick with basic functional clothing in shape, they'll still have different patterns and stuff to stand out.
