Toponymy
The name Zigoitia is usually described as consisting of the Basque elements Template:Langx (an aspirated variant of Template:Langx, meaning "bridge") and Template:Langx "upper". The toponym Template:Langx, meaning "Upper Zuffia", is attested in the medieval Template:Ill; while the neighboring municipality of Zuia, located in a valley, corresponds to Template:Langx, meaning "Lower Zuffia".[1]
Zigoitia is the form of the name in standard Basque orthography. It was adopted in 1995 by the municipal council, and published by the Boletín Oficial del Estado on 13 September 1996.[3]
