While every house in Slovenia has a civic address, many houses also carry a household name. These names are how other people typically referred to that family. This house has the name of Roginovi. This house was likely given this name as it may have been one of the oldest or even the original Rogina family in Stara Lipa. The name was later changed to Halekovi.
