Saint-Romain-Lachalm (French pronunciation: [sɛ̃ ʁɔmɛ̃ laʃalm]; Sant Roman in Occitan) is commune in the Haute-Loire department in south-central France.[3]

The commune's name seems to have come from a visit by Saint Romain, combined with Lachalm referring to the abundance of thatched roofs (la chaum, thatched roof).
