Name written in Greek

There are no Greek-speekers. There were also no native Greeks. Moroever Greek is not a minority language in NM. Aromanians (Vlachs) are not native Greeks. The village's name is written in Aromanian which is enough. Jingiby (talk) 16:01, 15 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the villages there were Bulgarian populated 100 years ago, but now there hardly could be find such people. As result the name of this village is not written in Bulgarian. Jingiby (talk) 12:29, 17 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The Vlach community had pro-Greek sentiments, that does not defacto warrant the Greek name in the article. Plus after the Balkan Wars, most of the population left for Greece. The linguistic and identity changes that occurred in subsequent generations for this community happened on the other side of the border, not in the current Macedonian republic.Resnjari (talk) 09:11, 19 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
