Abstract

The paper analyzes problems occurring in the inflection of male names ending in –o and –e. These problems are insufficiently explained normative rules on the one hand, and diverse speech practice of the speakers of Croatian. Possible grounds for such inconsistencies
are outlined and alternative normative solutions are offered on the basis of the accentuation characteristics of the neoštokavian system.
