This article discusses the historical anthroponyms of the peasantry around Brańsk in the Podlasie region based on lexemes zachodzić, przychodzić. In this research were used the personal names excerpted from the historical records (16th–mid-19th century). It was established that in the area personal names of this type become gradually less popular and finally disappeared from the anthroponymic system. The purpose of this study is to investigate this process.
