Name

The name Lefter Talo (Lefteris Talios in Greek) was given to the village by the authorities of the People's Republic of Albania to honor a local Greek resistance leader ( Hero of the People recipient). The former name of the village was ''Hajdëragas'' and was of Albanian origin with its suffix (-aga) coming from the Turkish title agha. At the Ottoman registers of 1895 it was recorded as Hadir-aga or Haidar-aga. It derived from the name of an Ottoman-era landowner who was in possession of the settlement.
