The presented study deals with a usage of secondary (synchronic) motivation of Slovak hydronyms - the hydronyms are motivated by contemporary oikonyms - and primary (diachronic) motivation, which means that the hydronyms are usually motivated by primeval Slavonic appellatives. The author analyzes some of the names that occurred in river basin of the river Vah. The names were motivated by primeval Slavonic lexical basis. From a synchronic point of view some watercourses are motivated by the names of the villages. However, from diachronic point of view there is an opposite motivation - a hydronym was created from the primeval Slavonic appellative and later the hydronym motivated the names of the villages surrounding the river. In the article author analyzes also the names motivated by the vegetation, character and temperature of water and so on.

The original form of the Russian river name Volkhov should be reconstructed as *Vǔlxy belonging to the ancient declension type with *-ū. The stem *Vǔlx- comes from IE *uel-/*uol-(/*uōl-)/*ul- ‘roll’, ‘attract’. This etymology is proved both by historical attestations and numerous parallels. The hydronym Vorskla (< Vǔrǐsk(ǔ)lǔ, as attested in the earliest source) is explained as a derivative with the suffix -l from the quantitative phonetic variant of the stem vǔrīsk- (Old Russian vǔrīskanie ‘horse competition’ from rīskati ‘run’, ‘go quickly’, ‘jump’, ‘rush along’, ‘aspire’). This variant of the stem is also attested in the Czech village name Vrskmaň.
