Its name in Hungarian language literally means "no-name village". Earlier it was known as Gyakfalva, however it was changed in the 17th century because the first part of the name "gyak" meant sexual intercourse and was considered offensive. After 1619 it is mentioned as Nevetlenfalu in the records.

After 1919 the village became part of Czechoslovakia, after 1945 part of the Soviet Union and after its breakup it belongs to Ukraine. Its population in 2001 was 85% Hungarian.
