This contribution presents ethnonyms related to the north-western branch of West Slavs, who, in the Middle Ages, inhabited the Elbe basin, the lower Oder basin as well as the Baltic coast from Schleswig up to the delta of the Vistula River. The author outlines particularly the names (and respective period etymology of them) which Pavol Jozef Safarik stated in his irreplaceable Slavic Antiquities (Slovanske starozitnosti) from the 1837. Translation of their 2nd part including a period from the 476 to the 988 was published in the 2009.

Contemporary onomastics made progress in interpretation of proper nouns, especially in conception of proper name that is viewed semiotically as a linguistic sign sui generis. Proper noun represents relevant onymic system. Study of onymic sign content enables more exact placing of ethnonyms (folk-names) and nouns denoting persons according to their place of abode into transitory area between common noun and proper noun (close to common noun). Stur's conception of proper noun as a separate thing of a certain class is significant for analysis of this lexical layer. In the contrary to antic tradition of the period, Benolak and Stur took into consideration also place of the folk-names and names denoting persons according to their place of abode. Conclusions of their considerations are not identical, but the fact, that both of them explained this question in relation particular - general (common noun), not particular - individual (proper noun), is motivating.

(Title in Roma language: Etnonima thaj profesonima. Rromane endaja dr-o Balkano). The paper aims to reveal the processes, through which the ethnonyms of the separate Gypsy groups appear. In this analysis are taken account for the two forms of existing of the ethnonyms as - endonyms (in the community itself) and exonyms (in front of the other Gypsy groups and the macro-society as a whole) - and the complex forms of correlation between them. Particular attention is turned to the cases, characteristic mainly for the Balkans (and the Gypsy groups who migrated from there in 19th-20th cc.), among who the ethnonyms are formed on the base of the carried out economic activities, characteristic for a given Gypsy group (the so-called proffesionyms), for instance Kalajdzii, Demirdzii, Kelderari, Kosnicari/Sepetcii and similar others. Based on material, gathered from different Gypsy groups on the Balkans, and from groups, migrated from there, the different forms of functioning of endo- and exonyms will be presented, i.e. it is analyzed in what cases which from the endo- or exonyms are used and why. This reveal also the circumstances in which the need for specific group appellation appear and vice versa in which circumstances the need for the group appellation disappear, thus we will be able to throw light on the cases in which particular Gypsy group are distinguished from others through clear expressed group etnonym and in which they are describing themselves only as 'Roma'. During the analysis of the complex and diverse variations of the correlations between the ethnonyms and professionyms of different Gypsy groups, one very important fact cannot escape attention. The professionyms (in many cases turned to be the only available for the group ethnonyms) fully (or almost fully, having in mind some specific cases) are formed on the base of the languages and the grammatical forms of the macro-society, in which the Gypsies live. Actually, summarizing, the professionyms, together with family-kin and territory-state characteristics, appear to be the most important criteria, on which the ethnonyms are formed (and in both of their forms of existence - as endonyms and exonyms) of the different Gypsy groups around the world.

Istorijski i onomastički aspekti etnonima Čeh i Bohem u srpskom i hrvatskom jeziku

The paper considers the historical and onomastic aspects of the appearance of (1) the ethnonyms 'Ceh' and 'Bohem', (2) the appellative 'ceh', and (3) the possessive adjectives 'ceski, -a, -o' and 'bohemski, -ska, -sko' in diachrony and synchrony in South Slavic languages (particularly Serbian and Croatian). The old legends and foreign historical books claim that the origin of the old Serbs and Croats was the state of Bojka (Bohemia), the state named after the Celtic tribe Boji who lived on the territory of the present-day Czech Republic. The latter historical and cultural connections among these Slavic peoples conditioned the appearance of the ethnonyms 'Bohem' and 'Ceh' and the possessive adjectives 'ceski' and 'bohemski' in various phonetic and morphological forms in the old writings, books and onymy. The linguistic literature makes a distinction between the ethnonym 'Ceh' and the appellative 'ceh' (a small, fat man). The contemporary Serbian and Croatian language show the following situation: (1) only the ethnonym 'Ceh' is used, (2) the use of the appellative 'ceh' had completely faded away (although other foreign ethnonyms have the polysemy), and (3) from the ethnonym 'Bohem', through French, the appellative 'boem-bohem' has been produced, denoting 'an artist who lives in a careless and unconventional way' and also the linguistic terms 'bohemistika' (the science about the Czech language) and 'bohemista' (a Czech language expert).
