==Name== Ihan was attested in written records in 1228 as Uichan (and as Iouchan in 1296, Jowchan in 1330, Jawchan in 1347, and Yawch in 1458). The Slovene name was originally *Juhan, as indicated by the German transcriptions. The toponym is likely derived from a Slavic personal name such as *Vojuxanъ and unrelated to the German name Johann. In the past the German name was Jauchen.
