Summary/Abstract: This paper discusses the question of church and monastery invocations in the light of the most ancient sources in from the turn of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. An analysis of sacral names has been based on detailed excerpts from the documents of Władysław Łokietek (1275-1333). They were printed in the nineteenth-century diplomatic codes, and partially in more recent publications. In the sources under study we can find church and monastery invocations. The description of sacral objects contain not only elements corresponding to patron names, but also anthroponymic and toponymic; they compose a considerable part of the analyses here. The material presented, if only in a residual scale, presents some basic semantic types of the names under analysis.
