Previously, the settlement was known as the Suuk-Su village (Crimean Tatar: Suvuq Suv). Following the forced deportation of the Crimean Tatars in 1944, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Russian SFSR published a decree on May 18, 1948, renaming the settlement along with many others throughout Crimea from their native Crimean Tatar names to their current variants.[3]
