Pühavaimu (Pühavaim)

Holy Spirit, after its nearby church. With a long history of name change: retro ecclesiam sancti spiriti e. capellam (1363) or strate achter dem hilghem gheeste (1389) (both meaning behind the Holy Ghost [church and chapel]) and later variants such as Hiiligöösti ulits (1732), Helliste (1885), etc. Renamed as Iskra for a couple of weeks in 1941, then as Säde during the later Soviet occupation (1948-1987).
