Summary/Abstract: In this paper we will try to analyse from the point of view of the etymologically and semantically proper name, which came from the Latins name, in works of V. Alecsandri and I.L. Caragiale. The proper names represent an additional denomination system, which are assigned to some objects designated by the common name, a generalizing of the class to which they belong. The denomination through proper nouns has a limited character, being restrained to certain categories of objects: persons, animals, places. V.Alecsandri and I.L. Caragiale are both the creators of a complex work, where they painted times and people from various times and levels of society, here we try to discuss the problem of the proper names that are based on the terms of Latins origin. For this type of analyses we resort to a dictionary which will contain a large part of the name to which we referred.
