Sažetak
In the region at the confluence of the river Bregalnica 147 double named toponyms have been recorded, which are also called toponymical twins, toponymical variants or variental toponyms. They are classified according to the structure in six groups and each toponym has an etymological interpretation. The author tries to answer the question of the motiv why the double naming appears. It is concluded that there is a process which has started in the past and is continuing into the future. That is a struggle for preservation of: (1) old naming in relation to the new naming; (2) dialectical peculiarity vis à vis the tendency for its change; (3) the long form vis à vis the tendency for a more economical, shorter form. It can not be determined with certainty which of two doublets has been the first and which is the second, i. e. which one of them is older.
