Etymology
The previous name of the Yuxarı Aralıq (Upper Aralyg) village was Aralıq Başkənd (Aralyg Bashkend). The second component of the name was served to distinguish the village from the same named settlement. Aralıq means "middle, the center ". In the Turkic languages, the word of başkənd (bashkend) also are using in meaning as "center", "main city", "capital". The name of the village means "the Aralıq village which is located in the upper side".[2]
