Summary/Abstract: In the article the author presents the analysis of both expressive appelative and proprial composed lexemes naming people in the history of Polish language. The author shows that sometimes one can treat appelative and proprial names as a whole. The structural models are similar and the method used in the research of appelative vocabulary can be proper in analysis of proprial names. A few aspects were observed, too. Structural aspect, stylistic and semantic aspect, psycholinguistic aspect, pragmatic aspect, sociological aspect and cultural aspect were taken into consideration what made possible to describe the analysed vocabulary in broadly understood communicative context.
