==Name== The name Dorfarje was first attested in 1291 as ''in Dorfern''. It is derived from Middle High German ''Dorfern'', originally a plural form of the common noun ''dorfære'' 'villager' (< ''dorf'' 'village'). The name therefore literally means 'villagers' and refers to early German colonization of the Sora Plain.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Snoj |first1=Marko |title=Etimološki slovar slovenskih zemljepisnih imen |date=2009 |publisher=Modrijan |location=Ljubljana |page=119}}</ref> In the past the German name was ''Dörfern''.<ref name="Leksikon"/>
