Blimea is a place name emerged from many Asturian words with different phonetic variants translated into Castilian word "wicker" such as bima, blima, brima, blimba or bilma. From the etymological point of view, wicker part of Latin "vimen - viminis" and in the Asturian case is influenced belime, "wheat residue" and bilimia, "drill", "Beria". It would therefore be an area where blima was abundant. Nalón river divides into two large halves and forms a broad plain which is where Blimea, capital of the parish rises.
