Origins

El nombre de la localidad podría proceder de la voz «Nava», término ya documentado en el siglo VIII y con el que se denominaba a un terreno llano con pasto, encharcable y situado generalmente entre montañas. Por su parte, «Cerrada» haría referencia al cercado que pudo existir para impedir que el ganado suelto se escapara.​
