According to a local legend, in the 17th century a branch of the Sharvashidzes migrated from Abkhazia and settled in the village and they later took the surname Abkhazi. This account is supported by Ioane Bagrationi, who believed that the Abkhazi nobles came to Kakheti from Abkhazia. According to Ioane, In 1636 Teimuraz I of Kakheti received the Abkhazis as princes.
