Russian and Serbian Anthroponymy in terms of Linguoculturology
Russian and Serbian Anthroponymy in terms of Linguoculturology

Summary/Abstract: The Orthodox civilization model has exerted a powerful influence on most of the anthroponymic fields of the Russian and Serbian language. This paper analyses that influence in the sphere of anthroponymy (individual and group personal names). The author shows identical features, similarities and differences between the Russian and Serbian anthroponymic systems with respect to their qualitative structure (the relation between canonic and noncanonic personal names, the status of common names and the names which are characteristic for other confessions), to their statistical structure, social characteristics and their associative and phonic qualities.
