Summary/Abstract: Toponyms in living names could serve as a foundation for creating a citizen name which is part of living name. However toponyms themselves can step into living names. Oikonyms and anoikonyms are the integral part of functional articles of living personal names. The basis of oikonyms and anoikonyms occurs in the living personal names in the form of individual characteristic according to origin and residence and in the name of house. The essence of living names comes from field research in the solitary-cottages area in Stará Turá region.
