Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to highlight the multiple nuances of diminutivized anthroponyms in modern European literature (19th century), focusing on the convergent and divergent aspects of the use of proper names across different cultural contexts. The diminutivization of anthroponyms transcends the linguistic sphere, becoming a complex tool for stylistic and identity construction, as well as a means of psychological characterization.The methodology of the present paper is characteristic to the field of onomastics, semantics, stylistics, theory of literary criticism and theory of literature. The corpus is excerpted from 19th century European literature.
