Name
The name ''Paka'' is a relatively common hydronym (cf. the Paka River) and toponym in Slovenia. As a hydronym, the designation comes from Slavic *''paka (voda)'' 'water flowing the wrong/opposite direction', and some settlements named ''Paka'' are derived from their location near such watercourses. However, the toponym ''Paka'' may also be derived from the Slovene common noun ''paka'' 'rise, elevation', referring to settlements in such a location.Cultural heritage
A small chapel-shrine in the settlement is dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and dates to the early 20th century.References
