Lexical connotations, despite fixation of the term itself as well as numerous methodological indications regarding their description, continually cause many problems. When applying this concept to proper names, it is essential not so much to differentiate between elements of denotation and connotation as to establish legible principles of verifying the postulated connotational traits. In this article the complexity of this problem is shown in regard to individual types of textual appearances: metaphor, metonymy, phraseological connections, proverbs, and stabilized syntactic constructions. The effect is a strengthening of conviction on the differentiation of the connotations themselves, as well as the necessity of making arbitrary decisions in an attempt to create a dictionary description (in the form of “Dictionary of Metaphors and Connotations of Personal Names”).
