This article aims to present the image of a woman in Polish affectionate names in the light of the theory of gender stereotypes. Special attention has been paid to the linguistic and cultural status of female affectionate names. Based on the analysis of selected female affectionate names, the author demonstrates that they contain some women’s representations that depend on features assigned to women in social and cultural stereotypes (physical, mental and behavioural) such as beauty, grace, timidity, kindness, peace, protectiveness, modesty, etc. It has been noticed that this image can be both positive and negative.

In this paper an attempt is made to examine affectionate names defined as substitute forms of proper names typical of private, romantic discourse. The study consists of two parts: The first section is dedicated to discussing and arranging research already done on affectionate language (terminology in use, definitions, affectionate names vs. „affectiva”, the grammar and stylistics of affectionate names, and thematic description). In the second part of the paper linguists’ approaches to affectionate names are verified empirically. The material under investigation is the collection of names used by Wojciech Kossak in his long-term (1883–1942) correspondence with his wife. The analysis confirms scholars’ outcomes in the field regarding: 1) the formal and stylisticdifferentiation of affectionate names, 2) the thematic fields typical of these language units, 3) and the dominance of appellative nicknames. The findings also indicate that the use of so-called terms of endearment depends on the context, giving the speaker some freedom as far as the choice of various language items is concerned. The author of the paper concludes that affectionate names seem to constitute an open set in which lines are blurred. In addition, it is mostly the competence of the participant of intimate communication that influences the form of affectionate names, so that they become typical or original.

This paper touches upon contemporary Polish affective names as a specific lexical category. The paper discusses the material collected in Annex, which is to illustrate changes within the onomastic category under analysis. The analyses proposed by the author draw upon the dictionary of Terms of Endearment by Mirosław Basko and Agnieszka Zygmunt, published in 2010. The author also relies on the collection of intimate vocabulary extracted from the letters of some 20th-century writers to their loved ones. The corpus of affectionate names is analysed in terms of their grammatical and thematic status quo: the majority of cases are nouns and adjectives; morphologically – most of them are diminutives, hypocorisms and augmentatives. The author also focuses on the use of vulgarisms - sexual expressions in particular – in naming intimately close persons, and on affectionate names inspired by English, such as names of characters from famous films, cartoons or satirical series and dramas.
