Modrej (; in older sources also Modreja) is a settlement on the left bank of the Soča River, just north of Most na Soči, in the Municipality of Tolmin in the Littoral region of Slovenia.

==Name== Modrej was attested in historical sources as Modrea in 1377. The name is believed to be derived from the nickname *Modrějь, formed from the anthroponym *Modrъ, based on the color adjective *modrъ 'blue'. It is unlikely that the name is derived from the adjective *mǫdrъ 'wise'.
