Cikháj () is a municipality and village in Žďár nad Sázavou District in the Vysočina Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 100 inhabitants.

==Etymology== The name has its origin probably in the Czech word žíhání that once meant 'slash-and-burn'. The German name Ziegenhain was derived from the Czech name, meaning 'goat grove'. The name Cikháj was then created by transliterating the German name back into Czech.
