==Name==
The name of the city has been linked with that of Petrizen, a [[Dardani]] fort mentioned by [[Procopius]] in the 6th century.<ref>{{cite book | last=Gold | first=J. | title=Multiethnizität in Alltag und Konflikt: Schein und Realität von Identitätskonstruktionen in der Balkanstadt Prizren | publisher=Springer | year=2019 | page=85}}</ref><ref>{{cite book | last=Recepoğlu | first=A.S. | title=Kosova'da Türk kültürü veya Türkçe düşünmek | publisher=T.C.

Hamp has suggested that the name of the city roughly meant "''ford-horned animal''" with the IE root ''*ḱrn "horn, horned-thing"'' (cf. [[Oxford]]). According to Curtis, Prizren follows Albanian phonetic sound rules.<ref>Mehmeti, Col. "This Time In Linguistics History: Eric Hamp and Albanian Linguistics".
