The review discusses the 2021 monograph “Names as Metaphors in Shakespeare’s Comedies” by Grant W. Smith. The structure and content of the monograph is presented, highlighting its grounding in classic Peircean semiotics and outlining the main categories of Shakespearian names. The publication of the book under review becomes the point of departure for more general remarks concerning the specific nature of literary onomastics in the USA and Europe.

The aim of the article is to look at which proper names are used by the authors of advertising mes-sages on the Internet, what transformations they are subject to, and what are the relationships between the slogan based on the name and the description of the promoted product. The material base con-sists of posts published on the fan page Lidl Polska via Facebook in 2020–2021, in which proper names have become the basis of language games. The analysis of formal procedures has shown that the most frequently used are contamination of propria with appellatives, while the replacement of an element in amulti-component proper name is equally eagerly used. Modifications consisting of phonetic and semantic manipulations, as well as the reduction of the segment of aseveral-element onymic unit, are much less common. The use of several transformations at the same time has also been frequently observed. In decoding advertising slogans and assessing the functionality of treat-ments, an important role is played by the connotative value of the names used for language games. The positive connotations associated with the proper name are to be transferred to the advertised product. First of all, various types of chrematonyms are transformed. For language games, not only are the names of well-known artistic works, music groups and places used, but also onyms that are recognizable by anarrower group of recipients.

The development of onomastic theory in national and international contexts brings new impulses and pressures on the existing terminological system, including the unequal use of specific terms and the relationships between them. In Slavic hydronomastics, both established national and international terms are used, and others are continually emerging, with some in competition with existing ones. In order for the terminological system to fulfil its tasks, the long-term goal should be to harmonize it in both national and international contexts. In this paper, we discuss the development and status of hydronomastic terminology in the Slavic context. We propose and justify possibilities for the functional elimination of hierarchical and definitional disproportions of the terms of marine and oceanic toponymy, namely oceanonym, pelagonym, talasonym, bationym. In Slavic onomastics, the names of inland water objects are divided into potamonyms, limnonyms and helonyms (formerly also baltonyms). The creation and use of synonymous terms to existing established terms (*paludonym to helonym) may be considered inappropriate. Only time will reveal the usefulness of other emerging hydronomastic terms (*krenonym, *glacionym, etc.) and the functionality of their inclusion in the terminological system. The term microhydronym as a type of microtoponym in some national onomastics covers the names of smaller standing and flowing waters (in Ukrainian onomastics, the term only refers to smaller standing waters), and it is used especially in East Slavic and partly also in South Slavic onomastics. However, such an understanding does not conflict with the above classification of hydronyms according to object types. The question remains whether the principles of creating an onomastic terminological system are current and if there is also a desire to harmonize onomastic terminology in the international context.

A large, diverse database on the Lower Sorbian language comprising several dictionaries, corpora etc. has already existed for several years. This database (www.dolnoserbski.de) is compiled, managed, and supplemented by the Sorbian Institute. It also includes proper names. After establishing detailed, practical information about the grammar of the names (declination), the goal of the next step was to include etymological information. Instead of a scholarly repository of the entire onomastic knowledge about Sorbian names, the aim was to create a bilingual (Lower Sorbian and German) information service for a broader public. However, this requires much more basic information than would be necessary for an onomastician. When, how, and why Sorbian names were coined has to be explained not just in general, but also in connection with individual names. This includes information about the reasons for names, the role of the various suffixes the names were created with, and so on. To compile this extensive information, which not only presents the etymology of the basic morphemes but also full explanations of names, specific text modules were developed for all phenomena and aspects concerning multiple names. For example, an article about one name consists of a specific text about this name along with several of the text modules dealing with, for instance, the suffix and the semantic group to which the name belongs. Furthermore, Lower Sorbian broadcasting contains a series featuring short explanations of Sorbian settlement names and surnames which runs partly in parallel with the above-mentioned database project.

The article presents the current work of the Commission on Names of Localities and Physiographic Objects to put Poland’s official geographical names in order. It outlines the main trends resulting from the requests of local authorities: changes in the forms of names (phonetic, inflectional, and derivational), renominations aiming to eliminate the discord between the official and non-official toponymy, establishing names for newly created or nameless objects, changes in the type of locality, and the abolition of names. Particular attention was paid to the impact of the regulations of various central administrative authorities on naming, the principles of the codification of names were presented, the Commission’s actions to counteract the mass abolition of names of small objects, and conclusions drawn on the effects of its work between 2017–2022.

The relationship between names and culture is multidimensional, and it also leaves a distinct mark on the practice of name research. The paper will present onomastic methods in the context of reveal-ing the relationship between names and culture. Culture in its broadest sense is present in almost all onomastics research, but some of these methods more consciously expose it in such a way that it becomes methodologically dominant. The emphasis will be placed on these methodologies, their tools, ways of describing names, and results of the research in the form of conclusions of a culture-wide character. The cultural categories of “name-ness” will be highlighted as crucial for the onymic categorization of reality, and therefore postulated as crucial for the cultural research of names.

The surname Kurdyła has been noted in the great dictionaries of Polish anthroponyms, but the ori-gin and structure ascribed to it have aroused some doubts. The reason for this is that the geography of the surname and its peasant origin were not taken into account. Therefore, the article discuss-es in detail the occurrence of this and similar anthroponyms within and outside Poland, as well as a detailed overview of all possible derivative databases and interpretations regarding its structure. These analyses lead to the conclusion that the surname Kurdyła is of Lemko origin, it was probably created from the appellative курділь ‘an ulcer on a horse’s tongue;tongue disease in cattle’. Apart from this interpretation, it is also possible to derive the surname from the lexeme with the root kurt- ‘short; truncated; lame’, probably from Hungarian.
