The paper examines the transposition of the urban toponyms (i.e. urbanonyms) into the zoological garden’s space, as well as the patterns present across those urbanonyms. The first section comprises a semantic and formal analysis of 18 urbanonyms found in the zoological garden in Zagreb. The second part comprises: a) a discussion of the urbanonyms (36 total) gathered from the zoological garden in Belgrade; and b) a comparative analysis of the urbanonyms collected from the two zoological gardens. The analysis takes into account the motivation behind these urbanonyms, their formal structure, as well as various factors that influenced the naming process. The vast majority of these urbanonyms are used as a means of commemoration; they are anthroponymic derivations based on the names and surnames of the well-known academic, cultural and political figures. From the formal perspective, most of the urbanonyms appear either in the genitive case or as constructions derived through adjectival or possessive formants.
