WIELOIMIENNOŚĆ WŚRÓD KOBIET Z WARSTWY MIESZCZAŃSKIEJ I CHŁOPSKIEJ ŚRODKOWO-ZACHODNIEGO PODLASIA (NA MATERIALE XVIII-WIECZNYCH KATOLICKICH I UNICKICH AKT METRYKALNYCH)
Multiple Christian Names of Women from the Bourgeoisie and Peasant Strata of Mid-Western Podlasie (on the Materials of the 18th-Century Catholic and Uniate Parish Records)

Summary/Abstract: The paper addresses the problem of multiple names among women in the bourgeois and peasant environments in the 18th century. The anthroponymic material, which provides the basis for the analysis, dates from the years 1706–1799 and was extracted from 14 record books of 8 parishes (7 Catholic and 1 Uniate) in the mid-western Podlasie region. Despite the fact that the two- and three- name formations are scarce (in the examined onomastic material they account for only 2.7% of the nominations), they appear to be an interesting research object. The study analyzes their origin and frequency. Additionally, the spread of multi-name nominations in the study and their chronology were examined.
