The item deals with unofficial personal proper names recorded during the research of dialects for the Czech Linguistic Atlas. It gives information above all about anthroponyms which were not published in this work (names of immature children, names of married women, names of men, house names and names of inhabitants). The examples also present specifics typical for these dialectal names.
The Elmtree in Moravian and Silesian Anoikonyms – Minor Place Names The item focuses on appearance of names of the elmtree in Moravan and Silesian anoikonyms. Next to the anoikonyms coming from the noun jilm (e.g. Jilmík, Jilmová), also the names coming from original Slavic names of this tree were recorded: vaz (e. g. Vazová) and břest (e. g. Břestek, Břístí). The anoikonyms coming from the noun břest seem to be typical for Moravia and Silesia (see the maps No. 1–3).
