Origins

Ibarra es un topónimo transparente, ya que significa 'la vega' en lengua vasca.​ El pueblo ocupa una llanura en la orilla derecha del río Elduaran o Berástegui poco antes de que este desemboque en el río Oria, a escaso kilómetro y medio del centro de Tolosa. El hecho de ubicarse en una feraz vega parece ser el motivo más probable de su denominación.​ Aunque en la actualidad esta vega está en buena parte ya urbanizada, siguen existiendo huertas e Ibarra sigue teniendo fama por sus productos agrícolas, especialmente por una variedad local de guindilla conocida como guindilla de Ibarra.

En Ecuador existe una localidad homónima, Ibarra, capital de la provincia de Imbabura, fundada por un vecino de la Ibarra guipuzcoana, Miguel de Ibarra y Mallea, que por entonces comandaba la Real Audiencia de Quito.

History

A mediados del siglo XIX, la villa tenía contabilizada una población de 336 habitantes.​ Aparece descrita en el noveno volumen del Diccionario geográfico-estadístico-histórico de España y sus posesiones de Ultramar de Pascual Madoz de la siguiente manera:
