Abstract

The introduction contains a brief overview of Croatian onomastic terminology,
with special regard to terminological synonymy. The use of synonyms (synonymic
terms) is usually attributed to the fact that Croatian onomastics lacks a handbook
of modern onomastic terminology, and also to the unsatisfactory attention of
researchers to the systematization related to the use of individual terms. In the
central part of the article, the terms imenska formula (proper name formula) and
antroponimijska formula (anthroponymic formula) are analyzed. It is revealed
that they are not synonyms, but terms in a hyperonym – hyponym relationship.
Definitions of both terms are also provided, with clearly delineated distinctions
between them. The article concludes with an invitation to other researchers to
further examine and systematize Croatian onomastic terminology, especially
considering the growing necessity to review it in the context of onomastic
terminology of other Slavic languages.
