==Name== Golišče was attested in historical sources as Guletsch in 1406, Guleͣtsch in 1407, and Golitsch in 1444. The name of the village is probably derived from the verb goliti in the sense of 'to clearcut', referring to a place that was clearcut. Other possibilities are derivation from gol 'young tree trunk' or 'bare, unforested area'.
