Name

The name Dolenji Podšumberk means 'lower Podšumberk', differentiating the village from neighboring Gorenji Podšumberk ('upper Podšumberk'), which stands about 40 meters (130 ft) higher in elevation. The two villages were attested in historical sources as Gebuuicz in 1424, Gewobicz in 1440, and Jebabicz in 1463, among other transcriptions.[4]
