Summary/Abstract: The author analyses nouns denoting people in the contemporary Russian language. The ways such nouns appear in the 21st century Russian linguistic system fit wellinto general tendencies of the development of the Russian lexicon, mostly involvinginternalization. Therefore the majority of new names denoting people are either loanwordsor hybrid words, i. e. lexemes derived from foreign stems with the use of Russian affixes.The most numerous thematic groups are constituted by names of professionals andpolitical activists.
