Name edit

The name Videm comes from the Slovene common noun videm 'church property', borrowed from Middle High German videme 'church property' (originally, 'property left by the deceased to the church').[3] The name of the settlement was changed from Videm to Videm pri Lukovici (literally, 'Videm near Lukovica') in 1953.[4]
