Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Acta Onomastica publishes research on all aspects of proper names, including their linguistic and non-linguistic features. The journal covers various types of names such as toponyms (place names, settlement names, street names, vineyard site names), anthroponyms (family names, personal names), and urbanonyms. It explores etymology, standardization, historical development, and the socio-onomastic and pragmatic functions of names, often with a focus on Czech and Central European contexts.
