Name
The name of the settlement was changed from Selo pri Svetem Andreju (literally, 'Selo near Saint Andrew') to Sela pri Sobračah (literally, 'Sela near Sobrače') in 1952. The name was changed on the basis of the 1948 Law on Names of Settlements and Designations of Squares, Streets, and Buildings as part of efforts by Slovenia's postwar communist government to remove religious elements from toponyms. In the past the German name was Selo bei Sankt Andrä.
