Personal Names of Joniškis Women from the Oldest Lithuanian Baptismal Register of Joniškis of 1599–1621 in the Context of Lithuanian Historical Anthroponymy

Summary/Abstract: Parish registers are among the most important sources of Lithuanian historical anthroponymy. A chronologically unique baptismal register of Joniškis dating to 1599–1621, which is currently the oldest known Lithuanian parish register in Lithuania, stands out in the context of such registers. The article focuses on 122 anthroponyms of Joniškis women from this register in terms of their formation (second components of the binary naming model). What is more, it attempts to discuss the situation of the formation of personal names of Joniškis female residents in the general context of Lithuanian research of historical anthroponymy of the 16th-17th century.
