Abstract:
This study explores the nature and evolution of anthroponyms—personal names—in the Russian language. The paper investigates their historical origins, linguistic structure, and cultural significance. Using descriptive, historical, and comparative linguistic methods, it analyzes how Russian anthroponyms have developed under the influence of Slavic traditions, Christianity, and modern globalization. The study demonstrates that Russian personal names serve as markers of cultural identity and linguistic continuity, preserving historical memory while adapting to contemporary naming trends.
