They preserve<br />various elements of material and spiritual culture. A genetic link between names and<br />language manifests itself in the lexical and grammatical system. Names function in society<br />as one of the components of culture. The name Maria appears in its original function<br />– as a personal name, but also as a base of secondary names: surnames, geographical<br />names (local, toponyms), participating in the cultural and linguistic onomasticon with<br />multiple meanings.</p> ER -
