Sažetak
The paper discusses 310 Croatian family names in the parts of Montenegro in
which Croats are indigenous (Boka kotorska, Spič, Bar with the surrounding villages,
and Šestani). The first part of the paper, provides dialectological data, pointing
out that Croatian dialectological research has not so far included the variants
spoken east of Boka kotorska. It also discusses the fact that the variants spoken
in the wider Bar area are the only variants which form the Croatian linguistic
continuum on the territory which directly borders with the territory where
the Albanian language is spoken. Furthermore, the development of a particular
anthroponymic formula is analyzed, a formula that has been strongly influenced
by different historical conditions (mainly Turkish conquests, but also the boundaries
in present-day Montenegro after the withdrawal of the Turks).
In the central part of the paper, the division of family names is based on their
motivation and linguistic origin. Those names are also compared to family names
of other nations (members of other South Slavic nations, as well as Albanians)
that live in those parts.
