The name Tsez derives from the indigenous self-designation cez or cezi, while the alternative Dido is the Georgian designation. The traditional lands of the Tsez are more or less coterminous with the Tsunta district (cuntinskij rajon) in Daghestan, excluding the Bezhta division (bežtinskij učastok), inhabited by speakers of Bezhta and Hunzib, and the village of Genukh, where speakers of Hinuq live.
