Abstracts

EN

The purpose of the article is the analysis of the popularity of names excerpted from Baptism Books from the Mother of God of Angels Parish Church in Grodno. The resources are based on parish certificates (Liber Natorum, Birth Certificates and Baptisms Register) kept by subsequent rectors of the parish. The documentary-statistical method has been used to analyze the anthroponymic material which allowed, among others, to show the frequency of individual names in every distinct time period. This way, attention has been drawn to customary changes in the naming system, fashionable names in individual periods including rare names that are, in fact, forgotten today or, on the other hand, completely new names that have not been used in the Polish language before, and finally names coming back into “favor” after many years of oblivion.
