Name
In Serbian, the village is known as Budisava or Будисава. There is a running myth how Budisava got its name. Apparently there was a person called Sava who had the job to wake up settlers, walking down the street ringing a cow bell in the morning. "Budi" meaning "wake (someone up) (in imperative mood)" and the name Sava, combined into Budi-sava (Waking-sava).

It was first mentioned in 1884.
Population
Besides 2,260 Serbs, there was also a sizable Hungarian minority, numbering 1,204 people.
