It is sometimes considered part of Zaplana, Vrhnika, Zaplana in the Municipality of Vrhnika although it is separated from it by a hill, not in continuous territory with it, and in a different municipality. Name The name ''Zaplana'' has been explained as a fused prepositional phrase that has lost case inflection, from ''za'' 'behind' + ''planja'' or ''planjava'' 'plateau, plain, open country', thus 'place beyond a plateau or open country'. Because the main hamlet of the settlement is named Log, it has been proposed that the settlement be renamed ''Log pri Logatcu'' (i.e., 'Log near Logatec') to avoid confusion with the settlement of Zaplana in the Municipality of Vrhnika.
