Etymology
The original form of the name of the village was Čaječ and was derived from the personal name Čajek, meaning "Čajek's (property)". The personal name was a domestic form of some name containing -čaj (Dobročaj, Bolečaj, etc.).[2]

History
The first written mention of Čejč is from 1222. In 1335, it was referred to as a market town with rights to hold markets and brew beer. Čejč was destroyed during the Hussite Wars and in 1459 it was described as abandoned. In 1769, the village was re-established. In 1825, a spa with a curative sulfur spring was established here, which brought prosperity and development to Čejč.[3]
