Keywords:

Toponymy is considered within the scope of onomastics, the science that studies proper nouns and all their types. At the same time, it possesses distinct characteristics. Firstly, the lexical units studied in toponymy are limited exclusively to the names of geographical locations; secondly, these units differ according to their word-formation models. The naming of a place depends on the level of development of society and its productive forces. If the main occupation of the local population is animal husbandry, the place may receive one type of name; if agriculture predominates, a different type; and if industry is dominant, yet another. Thus, place names reflect not only the features of the location itself but also the characteristics of the society that named it. For example, toponyms related to livestock breeding are among such cases. In our regions, there are many such names, and when analyzing them, it is important to take into account the essential principles of toponymy.
