The name of Mraketintsi (Bulgarian: Мракетинци) originates from the word (Bulgarian: Мрак) meaning 'Darkness'. According to locals this came about due to the history of the village, as it used to be a hiding place for Bulgarian liberation forces and rebel fighters at night, during the Russo-Turkish War.

The first recorded written mention of the name/place Mraketintsi was in 1878. According to locals, Bulgarian liberation forces and rebel fighters would hide in Mraketintsi at night during the Russo-Turkish War and that's where the name comes from. It was seen a good hiding place due to it being well-hidden at night and easy to defend. Many of the older homes in the village have back doors and basements in case the Ottoman forces came so they could easily escape in the night. They would also cover the windows so no light would be seen. However the war itself never made it to Mraketintsi.

Today Mraketintsi faces the same fate as most of rural Bulgaria—depopulation. The village only has a permanent population of 15. Most of the houses are now being used as holiday villas that locals, now living in the large cities, only come to maintain and use in the summer time.
