Summary/Abstract: Minor place-names including personal names form an important part of Czech anoikonyms. The paper complements the preceding investigations in this type of anoikonyms on the basis of their processing in the first two volumes of the Dictionary of Minor Place-Names in Bohemia. The author provides a statistic evaluation of the analysed names, an analysis of the individual kinds of personal names included in minor place-names, and an overview of the word-formation processes used for formation of minor place-names from personal names.
