Úhořilka is a municipality and village in Havlíčkův Brod District in the Vysočina Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 50 inhabitants.

==Etymology== The initial name of the village was Hořelka. The name was derived from the Czech verb hořet (i.e. 'burn'), referring to frequent fires in the village. The name was later distorted and from the beginning of the 17th century at the latest, it appeared as Úhořilka, due to the similarity with the word úhor (meaning 'uncultivated field').
