Imiennictwo Karaimów w Łucku w latach 1869–1950
Abstrakt (EN)
The article is dedicated to onimic practices of Lutsk Karaites, with particular regard to the relation between official (secular) and religious given names, based on onimic material ex-cerpted from a copy of registrar records found in the archive of the Karaite community in Lutsk, covering the years 1871–1950, and a birth registrar of 1869 kept in the Vrublevskis Library of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences in Vilnius. Hebrew names of biblical origin or, more rarely, non-biblical origin constitute the basic resource of the Lutsk Karaite anthroponymy, appearing in their original form or in Polish or Russian varieties, or as non-Hebrew fixed equivalents matched on the basis of phonetical resemblance. The article also includes a glossary of names and statistical tables of births in the Karaite community of Lutsk during the period in question.
