Place names

The early names are Noduis in 1110, Paizai feudum (fortress) in 1242, Payzaco and Peizay in the 14th century, Paysaco 1326. The origin of the name Paizay goes back to a Gallo-Roman personal name Pasius, to which the suffix -acum is appended, which would correspond to Pasiacum (field of Pasius). The name Naudouin could go back to a Germanic name Audowin.

An old spelling of the village of Embourie is Emborisio . Its origin goes back to the Latin place name Emporium (the market). Another not favored interpretation sees the origin of the name derived from the Gallic Amborix .

In 1793 the municipality was called Paisais , in 1801 Pesay-Naudouin and Paizay-Naudouin . In 1973 the municipality of Paizay-Naudouin-Embourie was created through the merger with the previously independent municipality of Embourie .
