Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the proper names in Mia March’s novel Finding Colin Firth and focuses on their classification and functions in this novel. While designating its three main characters, the names of Bea Crane, Veronica Russo and Gemma Hendricks are also the titles of three chapters. The names of the elixir pies (such as Amore Pie, for instance) baked by Veronica Russo are semantically transparent and also act as connectors.
