The name of this town is not much of a mystery, it seems that fennel abounded in the area and was originally called "Finojosa de los Pedroches" after the region in which it is located. The second part of the name is due to the fact that in 1553 the owner of the county, Francisco de Sotomayor, acquired this title when he married the III Duchess of Béjar, Elvira de Zúñiga.
