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 originally carried the name of Goričani. This name is likely in reference to physical location of the house within Učakovci–Goričan, Gora, mountain or hill.
Through the period of our studies, we have found seven distinct houses which originally carried the Mihelčič surname. This is the third of the seven houses (in order of house address).
The oldest records we have found to date for a person from this house is for several siblings, including:
