Inhabitants from well-established local families are known as hauts-banais or hautes-banaises, according to gender. This is a reference to the hilly territory in which the village is located and which at one time was owned by the nearby Étival Abbey. "Ban" is an old word for a territory while "haut" (high) is a reference to the uneven topography.
