Names of Koper
The Italian name of the city was anciently written as Capo d’Istria, and is reported on maps and sources in other European languages as such. Ancient names of the city include Ægidia and Justinopolis. Modern names of the city include Croatian: Kopar, Serbian: Копар, romanized: Kopar, and German: Gafers. The Slovene-speaking population calls the city Koper. The Slavic-speaking population, present in the area since at least the late 7th century, largely relied on oral tradition up to the invention of printing. The Slovenian name Koper was first attested in writing in 1557, but with the spelling Copper.
