Imovica (in Slovenian pronounced as /ˈiːmɔʋitsa/) is a small settlement southwest of Lukovica pri Domžalah in the eastern part of the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.[2]

Name

Imovica was attested in historical sources as Ymowicz in 1385, Hymouicz in 1458, and Ymawetz in 1470, among other spellings.[3] The name is probably related to the noun imovina 'property, possession', referring to its ownership status in the past.[4] [5]
