==Etymology== Its previous name was Günnüt Cəfərli (Gyunnyut Dzhafarli). The settlement was built in the place called Günnüt by the families belonging to Jafarli generation. In the Toponomy the word of günnüt means "meadow, plain," but as a distorted form of günnük word, it means "place which the sun hits", "last spring greens, autumn pasture". According to some researchers, this name is related with the name of the günnüt tribe which came to Nakhchivan among the Mongols.
