Abstract: "A meeting on surnames was recently held in Lyons, gathering searchers from different scientific horizons such as sociology, history, anthropology, demography and population genetics. We selected the six following papers because of their major interest to history of the family and history of populations. Surnames appear as an important and convenient tool for the study of marriage patterns or of geographical mobility. We also provide some general comments about the different uses of surnames in the current works in the field of historical demography and population genetics. We also mention some examples revealing the social significance of surnames in some specific historical context"
[Publishers abstract]
"All archival sources are nominative, and surnames link data, yet in the past historical demographers did not pay much attention to surnames. Long recognized as tools and convenient markers, surnames have themselves become the subject of studies. Much recent historical demographic work is based on a longitudinal approach to small populations, and research groups are building very large computerized population files based on surnames and family relations. Surnames can be studied through anthroponomic, onomastic, and philological techniques or generational transmission, and reveal social importance related to specific historical contexts."

Abstract: Author abstract" The study analyses data from a free experiment conducted through associations with 41 questioned persons on twenty seven traditional and new Bulgarian male and female names. On the basis of this experiment the author draws her conclusions: the greater part of the names can be associated with positive qualities (physical and moral); a name can be associated with polar qualities; a person’s attitude to a name can be based on associating it with the domineering image of someone bearing that name. That is why people prefer the names of popular personalities. The names of high frequency are connected with a wide range of associations which makes those names more universal and quarantees their preservation."

Abstract: Publisher's abstract " The practice of forming patronymic surnames from titles designating social or political function is frequently encountered among the South Slavs. The family name of Aleksandur Stoilovich Boiev Ekzarkh (1810-91), Prefect of Plovdiv and a member of the administrative council of East Rumelia, constitutes such an example. Boiev derived the name Ekzarkh from the corresponding ecclesiastical administrative title denoting his status as representative of the Metropolitate of Turnovo, a mediatory position linking civil and religious authority.

Notes: [Name changes in Baja, 1895-1945].
Abstract: Publisher's abstract " Discusses changes in family names in the Hungarian town of Baja from 1895 to 1945 as a result of historical events. Baja was home to national groups - Serbs, Slovaks, Jews, Germans, and others - whose presence in the town diminished over these years, whereas the Hungarian population steadily increased. The main reason for this appears to have been at least partial assimilation in the form of name changes to Hungarian surnames, evidenced by an anomaly wherein the bearers of German surnames rapidly disappeared while the number of German speakers increased. Of those who bore German surnames, relatively large numbers were Jews who sought name changes as a form of refuge from discrimination. "

Abstract: "Belint is a village in the Banat region of southwestern Romania bordering on Serbia. Individuals there have four types of name: "...the family name, the name attached to the house and the place of origin, the baptismal name, and the fourth is the surname called the 'pociumb' name." The pociumb is somewhere between a personal name and a placename. It appears to be somewhat like a group nickname. There are two onomastic systems in the village, the official one (family name and the baptismal name) and the popular one (baptismal name usually in hypocoristic form, and the pociumb name). Rules for the application of the pociumb name in marriage and divorce are given. Several examples" Source of abstract -ed lawson

Abstract: Abstract: This study assesses the current state of affairs in women's naming choices across two speech communities in two languages. Through questionnaire and ethnographic data we study how women in the US and Russia address the surname issue when faced with marriage or partnership. The analysis is carried out from the perspective of cross-cultural anthropological linguistics. Our data lend insights into how naming choices affect one's individual, social and professional identity; moreover, our findings indicate that even more critical than the identity issue is the question of what such social labeling choices mean in terms of reflecting and perpetuating the gendered power hierarchy of a society

Abstract: Publisher's abstract " Traces patterns in the usage of proper names in early modern Russia. Despite the Christianization of Rus' in the 10th century, names tended to reflect personal characteristics, geographic location, birth order, and likeness to animals and objects. Not until the end of the 17th century did Muscovite children exclusively bear names based on the Christian calendar. A dynamic process throughout the centuries, the naming system ultimately evolved to reflect social distinctions as well as differences in urban-rural cultural values. "

Abstract: Publisher's abstract " The imperial decrees emancipating the serfs of the Russian Baltic provinces (1816-20) included the requirement that serfs, who would now become free peasants and obtain legal standing, have both a first name and a surname, the latter of their own choosing. The article examines the process through which Baltic peasants obtained surnames and analyzes the choices they made. On the Pinkenhof estate in Livonia, emancipated serfs most often chose surnames that reflected their place of residence but also frequently chose names from the natural world, occupations, and other similar sources. The acquisition of surnames helped to consolidate family and lineage identity, which had been difficult in the preemancipation period when individuals bore only a first name plus the name of the place in which they were currently residing, the latter changing as they moved.

Abstract: Ingenta: Surnames are traditionally used in population genetics as “quasi-genetic” markers (i.e., analogs of genes) when studying the structure of the gene pool and the factors of its microevolution. In this study, spatial variation of Russian surnames was analyzed with the use of computer-based gene geography. Gene geography of surnames was demonstrated to be promising for population studies on the total Russian gene pool. Frequencies of surnames were studied in 64 sel'sovets (rural communities; a total of 33 thousand persons) of 52 raions (districts) of 22 oblasts (regions) of the European part of Russia. For each of 75 widespread surnames, an electronic map of its frequency was constructed. Summary maps of principal components were drawn based on all maps of individual surnames. The first 5 of 75 principal components accounted for half of the total variance, which indicates high resolving power of surnames. The map of the first principal component exhibits a trend directed from the northwestern to the eastern regions of the area studied. The trend of the second component was directed from the southwestern to the northern regions of the area studied, i.e., it was close to latitudinal. This trend almost coincided with the latitudinal trend of principal components for three sets of data (genetic, anthropological, and dermatoglyphical). Therefore, the latitudinal trend may be considered the main direction of variation of the Russian gene pool. The similarity between the main scenarios for the genetic and quasi-genetic markers demonstrates the effectiveness of the use of surnames for analysis of the Russian gene pool. In view of the dispute between R. Sokal and L.L. Cavalli-Sforza about the effects of false correlations, the maps of principal components of Russian surnames were constructed by two methods: through analysis of maps and through direct analysis of original data on the frequencies of surnames. An almost complete coincidence of these maps (correlation coefficient = 0.96) indicates that, taking into account the reliability of the data, the resultant maps of principal components have no errors of false correlations

Abstract: This article analyzes the morphological and semantic patterns of personal names found among Koryak-speaking people in the village of Middle Pakhachi (Oliutor Raion, Koryak Autonomous Okrug) in northern Kamchatka. Names are connected to the essence of a person, and are thus connected with beliefs about personhood, reincarnation, spirit attack, and sickness. Names are typically from nouns, but can also come from verbs or modifiers. They are often nominalized. Many names come from compounding roots, which is common to distinguish two individuals with the same name in the same village. Most names are gendered. Feminine gender is overtly marked, but masculine is not. Not all names have analyzable meanings apparent to ordinary speakers of the language, but names are thought to reflect the inner essence or character of a person.

Abstract: Investigation of the element FÄLT in Swedish family names in Finland shows that in 1970 the element was contained in 130 different family names borne by 2,597 individuals. Historically, the name was originally reserved for the nobility, particularly the officer class. Later use spread to the dragoons and soldiers. At the beginning of the 20th century, it experienced a renaissance among seamen, farmers, and the lower middle class.

Abstract: To discover what effects the political, religious, social, and economic climate had on naming children, 100 families (representing almost 700 individuals) were interviewed to identify patterns in first names given over three generations. The sample of 100 families includes people from different religious backgrounds and from different parts of Latvia. Native speakers conducted the interviews. Data were analyzed by time period, religious background, linguistic origin of the name, and the name's origin, meaning, and significance. Results indicate that during the Soviet occupation, significantly more names defined as Latvian were chosen. This is interpreted as a demonstration of Latvian patriotism during this troubling period. Appended are male and female names by time period. (Author/MSE)

Abstract: Publisher's abstract " Using a list of about 12,000 names collected from contemporary documents, concludes that the process of the development of Lithuanian surnames was completed in the 18th century. At this time only Christian first names were used, no Lithuanian national names. Before the 18th century surnames might come from the father's name, from an occupation, or some personal factor, and they were not necessarily consistent among siblings. In the course of the 18th century rural inventories showed a growing consistency in surnames transmitted from father to son. Almost half the collected surnames originated as patronymics, most of these using Slavic forms. "

Abstract: Publisher's abstract " In ancient times the Lithuanians, like other peoples, had only single names. The use of surnames began around the end of the 14th and beginning of the 15th centuries. At first an urban and upper-class phenomenon, the formation of surnames occurred most intensively during the 16th and 17th centuries. The process was completed, for the most part, by the end of the 18th century, by which time the common folk as well as the privileged classes had family names which they used in a systematic fashion. Foreign, especially Polish, influences eventually led to a decline in the development of genuine Lithuanian personal names. But in the 20th century it has been popular to take old names from a variety of historical, literary, and geographical sources, both Baltic and non-Baltic. "

The types of names used in address are described. Two types of names that are somewhat unusual are: (1) those names not pronounced like gjarpër (serpent) or ujku (wolf), and (2), the name of a newly-deceased which must be announced by shouting to members of the tribe.

This volume examines patterns in naming in Albania, Greece, Romania, and and collects data from all social categories over various periods of history. More traditional and less influenced by governments, this area of Europe has preserved conventions of name and territorialization, name and tribal society, or name and religion that reconstitute systems that have elsewhere disappeared."

on the pattern of name giving in the region of the western Istria. Moreover, author analysed the structure of nicknames, and established that the most common names were those of Evangelists (John-Ivan, Mathew-Matej, and Mark-Marko). Furthermore, the name Anthony was also very fashionable among contemporary Istrians, since St. Anthony was rather popular saint. Regarding the female names, the most common was Mary. Author also concludes that nicknames are more interesting material to investigate since they offer more information about their owners and communities in which they lived."

Abstract: author abstract "The article on personal names on the island of Pašman gives a short overview of demographic trends through history which had an impact on the composition
and number of inhabitants of the islands near Zadar including Pašman, which also had an indirect impact on the choice of personal names. The central part of the article analyses the synchronic corpus of personal names collected by means of a survey on the island and from the birth register. For purposes of comparison with this corpus, a collective survey of sources for the selection of personal names in earlier centuries is provided (13th-14th centuries, 19th century)."

Although the title suggests that the study is on family names, there is a full description of how the first or baptismal name is conferred with a description of the role of the godfather. There is a description of how family names began. At one time, persons with the same family could not marry even though unrelated. Another name is the name of reference that identifies the degree of acquaintance with a person. One type are collective names which refer to all people of a given group (Maniates). Another type of reference name are the syndrophia, names of social classes and strata. Finally, there are names used in speaking to a person." Source of abstract -ed lawson

Abstract: Skyros is located in the Aegean Sea northeast of Athens. There are three social strata: landowners, shepherds, and farm workers. Each group lives in its own section of town and wears distinguishing dress. Individuals have three names: personal (providing a link to an ancestor and follows precise rules), family (showing line of descent), and nickname (the most reliable means of identification). Several types of name form are described. One is the anastasi, a first name which originally resurrected an ancestor. However, in Skyros, contrary to the practice in other societies, an anastasi has an honorific character and a parent can be resuscitated several times in a family. In Skyros, there are two customs for the transmission of first names: (1) the firstborn, regardless of sex, receives the first name of one of the paternal grandparents, (2) the eldest daughter " . . . receives the first name of her maternal grandmother and the eldest son that of his father's father."

Abstract: Vourkoti is a small village on the island of Andros, the island farthest north in Cyclades (the islands off the southeast coast of Greece). Arvanites are descendants of people who originated in Albania. Analysis of records from three periods (1853, 1873, and 1954) shows that masculine name are from a limited stock and are religious (Greek Orthodox); girls names show considerable freedom and demonstrate: wishes, desires, virtues, and relationship to nature. The role of grandparents in naming is described. The first names of deceased relatives are not given to children for the fear of bringing bad luck. There are two types of nickname, personal and family nicknames which are hereditary.

Abstract: "A historical introduction describes how the island of Syros came to have a large Catholic population and also an Orthodox population. Syros is one of the islands of the Cyclades, those islands off the southeast coast of Greece. While patronymics are used, they are generally not known except for prominent people. Baptismal names are conferred 40 days after birth and give the child an identity. Terms of address mark boundaries in social life and age-groups. There are different types of nickname: (1) the village of family type--for head of the family group and passed on by a son, (2) the city nickname, and (3) the religious nickname. The usage is different for the Orthodox.

Abstract: The Greek island of Kastellorizo is just off the southwest coast of Turkey and the town of Kas. The population in 1981 was 215. The transmission of the grandfather's name to the eldest son is an important function since it shows the paternal line of descent Second-born children receive the first names of the maternal grandfather and grandmother. Names of other children follow an alternation pattern between paternal and maternal sides. There are personal nicknames including some which become hereditary and become surnames. Some nickname examples are: "tou haidaru" (of the donkey), "e kotsinu" (the redhead), "kajas" (rock), and "parjano" (from Paros, a modest woman).

Abstract: Abstract The isonymy structure of Italy was studied using the surname distribution of 5,043,580 private telephone users selected from a 1996 commercial CD-ROM that contains all 24 million users in the country. The users were distributed in 123 towns selected on a geographic basis. The 123 towns were either on the main communication roads of the country or at the ends of such roads. The shortest distance between nearest neighbor towns was 5.3 km (Carrara and Massa), and the largest distance was 1,136 km (Aosta and Castrignano del Capo). The number of different surnames found in the whole analysis was 20,623. Lasker's distance, the negative value of the logarithm of random isonymy between localities, was linearly and significantly correlated with the logarithm of geographic distance, with r = 0.63 +/- 0.008. A dendrogram was built from the matrix of isonymy distances, using UPGMA. It separates the Italian towns into 5 main clusters: I in the southern portion of the country, a second cluster toward the center, and 3 in the northern area of Italy. Within each cluster small subclusters with specific geographic distributions could be related to regional borders. Comparisons with the results of a previous analysis of Switzerland and Germany's structures are given. From the present analysis isolation by distance emerges clearly, although it is less strong than in Switzerland and stronger than in Germany. The random component of inbreeding estimated from isonymy indicates that the southern area of Italy is on average more inbred than the northern area. In fact, the heterogeneity is greater in the northern area, particularly in the plain of the Po River, than anywhere else in Italy.

Abstract: Surname distributions were studied in order to reconstruct human migration patterns. Zones of sharp change in surname frequencies - presumably barriers to gene flow - were detected by the statistical technique of wombling (Barbujani et al. 1989), using data from consanguineous marriages (1910-64) collected from 280 Italian dioceses which we grouped into 80 provinces. The 28 observed surname boundaries were compared with physical (geographical) and cultural (linguistic) barriers, and with boundaries detected from distributions of 57 alleles in the same territorial subdivisions

Abstract: Publisher's abstract " The oldest Sardinian documents from the 12th century show that the binomial system of personal identification (first name and surname) was already established. Later sources, however, reveal that persons could possess more than one surname. This permitted men and women to remain identified with both the patriline and the matriline (sometimes resulting in two, three, or four surnames) and worked also as a kind of kinship mnemonic. This multiplicity of ways of underlining kinship identity (filiation) continued in varying forms until the end of the 18th century. Only then did the system of filiation settle into a clearly patrilineal pattern. Yet the older naming customs have not disappeared entirely, and to this day lend to the Sardinian onomastic system a kind of "turbulence." "

Abstract: Abstract: 'This paper begins by showing that double-naming can treat both sexes equally, and still achieve other properties that may seem mutually incompatible. It then considers Spanish naming as an approximation to this schema, and finds some evidence that the maintenance of female surnames may be connected to equal inheritance and a relatively high female status. Obviously, this evidence is only suggestive. Throughout North-America and Western Europe, a wide variety of surname compromises are now on display in real family lives. The double-surname system advocated here will not be adopted because of a logical proof, nor can the adoption of such a system secure the victory of cultural norms. Norms emerge rather from the decomposition of older norms, from millions of more-or-less unhappy compromises of people trying to 'have it both ways,' to

Abstract: In order to estimate the isonymy structure of Spain, we studied surname distribution in 283 Spanish towns based on 3.625 million telephone users selected from 6.328 million users, downloaded from a commercial CD-ROM which contains all 13 million users in the country. Since in Spain the surname is made by the paternal and the maternal surname, it was possible to classify surnames according to parental origin. Two matrices of isonymy distances, one for paternal and one for maternal surnames, were constructed and tested for correlation with geographic distance. For thewhole of Spain, Euclidean distance was significantly but weakly correlated with geographic distance both for paternal and maternal surnames, with r = 0.205 +/- 0.013 and r = 0.263 +/- 0.012, respectively.Two dendrograms of the 283 sampled towns were built from the two matrices of Euclidean distance. They are largely colinear. Four main clusters identified by the dendrograms are correlated with geography. Given the surname structure of Spain, we were able to calculate from isonymy and for each town 1) total or expressed inbreeding, 2) random or expected inbreeding, and 3) local inbreeding. Total inbreeding, F(IT), was highest in the North Atlantic regions and lowest along the Mediterranean Coast.

Notes: author's webpage http://filesp.usc.es/grupos/koine/publicaciones/publicaciones02.html
Abstract: In this paper I will analyse how traditional Galician naming patterns circulate from discourses produced in traditional networks to the institutional and political speech belonging to the networks that emerge in the process of urbanisation and establishment of a democratic political system in Galicia. Based on the Ethnography of Communication, Interactional Sociolinguistics, Conversational Analysis and Critical Discourse Analysis, I will examine -from a broad interdisciplinary perspective- the social relevance of these discursive practices to the negotiation of local identities. I will observe how politicians, aside from using technical nomination and introduction procedures, characteristic of political jargon, strategically mobilise traditional naming patterns (Prego Vázquez, 2000). Along these lines, I will study how this type of discursive circulation concerns the process of conversationalisation of institutional discourse (Fairclough, 1997) in order to cover the asymmetric interactive relations between institutional representatives and individuals and, in this way, enhance the exercise of persuasion (Prego Vázquez, to appear). The analysis is based on a data corpus collected in Bergantiños (A Coruña): it is composed of haggling in rural markets, regueifas, sung or rhymed verbal challenges in which two individuals face off and, finally, public discourse (political and institutional)

Abstract: Publisher's abstract " Flemish emigration during the 19th and 20th centuries is too complex to be dealt with definitively in a single article. The main objective here is to provide an overview of Flemish migration to France and Wallonia by looking at its chronology and the spatial distribution of emigrants and their descendants. In this effort, patronym distribution is very helpful. As markers of migratory movements, patronyms from a collection of nominative lists illuminate migration flows as no other evidence can. Comparing France and Wallonia as destination areas, similarities between types of migrant are apparent: workers in heavy industry, workers in the agricultural sector, and workers engaged in domestic services. In addition, three phases may be identified in the arrival of a Flemish population in France and Wallonia: an immigration phase, an integration phase, and a redistribution phase. The last phase is also part of the urbanization process and is linked with upward social mobility. "

Abstract: The distribution of surnames in a population may be studied in the same way as the distribution of the number of alleles in a locus. The mutation probabilities per unit of time in the genetic model may be likened to the immigration probabilities in the population studied. This method has been applied to births in the rural communes of France during the years 1891-1915 and 1916-1940

Abstract: "The distribution of surnames in 90 distinct regions in France during two successive periods, 1889-1915 and 1916-1940 is analyzed from the civil birth registers..." Used a new procedure called the Mobile Site Method was developed to allow representation of a surname distance matrix by a distorted geographical map. Resulting maps are interpreted to show the slow process of local migration.

Abstract: Abstract: 'The itineraries followed by migrants during the rural exodus can be shown up by the diffusion of surnames and analysed using a gravity model. While the greatest share of migration is towards the closest large towns, some migration is determined by a different spatial logic, which is detected through model residuals",

Abstract: The distribution of Italian surnames in France was studied for the periods 1891-1915 and 1916-1940 by using birth registration data. The 100 most common surnames in each Italian region were used as references. Differences in the distribution of surnames between Italy and each French departement were assessed and mapped to show changes in the distribution of the Italian population between one period and the next. In addition, by recording increasing birth rates among those with Italian surnames, it was possible to determine the flow of migration interms of the Italian regions involved. These methods show that Italian migration is the result of both rather old migration flows on the south eastern border of France, and a more recent movement towards areas of employment (north east and south east); thus Venetians tended to migrate to the Garonne valley, and Lombards to Lorraine.

Abstract: This paper is intended to give a brief survey of the use of surnames as a method to investigate issues in historical demography. After highlighting the importance of the reliability of the research sources and the need for the development of critical analyses, several statistical methods are described, most of which have been derived from population genetics and from quantitative approaches used by medievalists. These methods provide a way to describe the distribution of surnames, as well as to compare various distributions obtained successively through time and gathered from diverse areas in order to draw conclusions about the population dynamics, and particularly, about the geographic mobility of people over time. Several examples are given to illustrate this purpose.

Abstract: Abstract: The list of French surnames has been compiled from the INSEE file of births registered during two periods: 1891-1915 and 1916-1940. Statistics on the total number of surnames; on the proportion that are represented by a single birth and on the number of surnames for 100 births, are given by department for the two periods considered and distinguish the communes where fewer than 800 births were registered over 25 years. These statistics by department are compared with immigration rates, consanguinity rates and the mean number of children per family.

Notes: [First names in Year II and beyond: a typology of first names in France during the revolution].
Abstract: Publisher's abstract " Analysis of birth registers from fifty French towns and 133 rural communities in the district of Villefranche-en-Beaujolais provides a typology of first names given during the French Revolution, especially in Years II and III (1793-94). Considerable variation occurred among cities when considering only names indisputably linked to the revolution (as Florqal or Libertq, for example). The study, however, also considered other sets of names with less apparent revolutionary ties (for example, Victoire, Rose, and Aired) and without revolutionary ties (for example Caroline and Laure). In a few cities, at least for some months, the lack of some Christian names among those used most before the revolution (Jean Joseph and Marie Madeleine, for example) was a striking phenomenon, suggesting that parents had little freedom in naming their children. Using this typology demonstrates the unequal reception of revolutionary first names in France during the crucial years of the revolution. "

Abstract: Publisher: "L'auteur a déjà publié, avec "Au temps des laboureurs en Berry", un ensemble de témoignages sur la vie quotidienne dans les campagnes bocagères d'Ancien Régime. Il nous livre ici d'autres trésors du patrimoine, ces noms de famille si originaux des terroirs d'entre Berry, Bourbonnais et Marche: chacun d'entre nous en connaît dans son entourage. Près d'un demi-millier, la quasi-totalité sans doute, ont été recensés. Précieux et fragiles témoignages des temps passés, fort menacés de déclin, ils conservent la saveur des vieux noms de baptême, des métiers disparus, des sobriquets d'antan. On y remarque les «matronymes» si singuliers de nos campagnes, souvenir émouvant de femmes des temps passés. Pour chaque nom, on lira le nombre de familles qui le portent aujourd'hui, son lieu d'origine et sa signification, dans le cadre d'un commentaire documenté sur la formation des noms en général et de ces noms originaux en particulier.

Notes: : [Girls' names and their image: research into female first names in Ile-de-France during the revolutionary period, 1775-1825]
Abstract: Publisher's abstract " The study of first names can provide a relevant cultural indicator for the revolutionary period, especially if it covers not just republican forenames but the corpus as a whole. Thus, a survey of female first names focusing on the development of the stock, the number and form of forenames, and the associations or reference systems can shed light on significant changes. The growth and feminization of the stock, the regression of traditional modes of transmission, and the renewal of references reveal that the image of girls evolved in a more egalitarian fashion. The affirmation of specific forms of naming may indicate a stronger sense of female identity, even though their ideological content is not without ambiguities. "

Abstract: Publisher's abstract " Compares the registers of births and the registers of baptism of an Ile-de-France village for the period from 1806 to 1888. Discrepancies, mainly the suppression or the addition of a name or the substitution of one for another, occurred more and more after 1830. They can often be related to the increasing delay between birth and baptism due to the wish of the parents that the godparents attend the ceremony, demonstrating the progressive weakening of the religious character of baptism with more emphasis placed on its social aspect, evidence of rural dechristianization.

Abstract: Publisher's abstract " As part of a quantitative study of personal names designed to illuminate migration in the Cévennes and lower Languedoc regions of France from the mid-19th to the mid-20th century, given names were considered an indicator of mentalities. After describing general demographic characteristics of the region in the period 1843-62, the article provides information about the way given names from over thirty thousand birth records were analyzed. The original intent was to compare the naming practices of Catholics and Protestants, which do indeed show some differences. A surprising discovery, however, was the great variety of given names, many uncommon, in this deeply rural area. Questions concerning how and why peasant communities acquired names derived from Greek and Roman antiquity as well as Arabic and Persian names remain unanswered. "

Abstract: Publisher's abstract " A study of the stem family system in a group of villages in Haute-Provence during the 18th and 19th centuries reveals the existence of a high degree of isonymy (same-namedness). The sources employed are marriage contracts and parish registers permitting genealogical reconstitution. Isonymy does not always signify a marriage between close relatives; although spouses might share a common ancestor, that ancestor might date back many generations. The relatively frequent occurrence of marriages between homonymous spouses is not absolute proof of a union between close relatives. Indeed, heteronymic alliances, even exogamic ones, can hide a marriage between first cousins if consanguinity is transmitted by the mothers. "

Notes:
Abstract: Publisher's abstract " Surnames among the French nobility are often composed of patronymic names, titles, and noms de terre joined by the preposition "de." The article first analyzes the articulation and devolution processes of these different components as well as the meaning they could have had in the Old Regime and then examines the effects of the French Revolution on such names. The example of a court proceeding in the 19th century, involving two families and dealing with the usurpation of a nom de terre, leads to questions concerning the relations between law, common use, and the many functions of proper names in contemporary society.

Notes: [Research on revolutionary first names in Paris].
Abstract: Publisher's abstract " Studies 3,900 birth certificates from Paris in Year II (1793) that were reconstructed after the fires of 1871. In 549 cases revolutionary first names were given; seven out of ten times the recipient was an abandoned child, and boys were three times more likely than girls to receive such a name. The vast majority of first names were either historical or referred to nature rather than to revolutionaries. They were often associated with a second Christian name. When the first name was given by the parents, the highest and lowest density of the phenomenon reflects the sociology of Paris sections; the rate was low in bourgeois sections. Nonetheless, there was a reduced likelihood for the children of the illiterate to be given revolutionary first names. The middle class and, particularly, artisans willingly participated in the movement. "

Notes: [Revolutionary first names in the French Revolution: a developing area].
Abstract: Publisher's abstract " The findings compiled in the field of revolutionary first names over the last twenty years are ready to be historiographically and methodologically assessed. After a pioneering phase (up to 1980), a growing awareness of the issues and pitfalls led to finer tuning. It was agreed to broaden the characterization of the phenomenon and to reconfigure the short Year II sequence as a longer term. Differing groups of revolutionary first names tend to coalesce through systematic reference to common criteria, such as sex, the child's environment, and the registration process. There is still no consensus on clear-cut forenames (such as Montagne), ambiguous forenames (such as Rose, Victoire), and mixed forenames (such as Jean Libertq). While most scholars agree on the relevance of the revolutionary first name survey, they differ on its significance in terms of a break with the past. The growing number of studies based on common formats should lead to a truly national survey in an area that still has much to yield. "

Billy, P.-H. (2000). Des prenoms revolutionnaires en France . Annales Historiques De La Revolution Française, (322), 39-60.
Notes: [Revolutionary first names in France]. in the 1790's.
Abstract: Publisher's abstract " Studies on so-called revolutionary first names often appear monolithic. A survey of naming requires a keen look at the circumstances surrounding the individual as well as the name itself. The motivation behind the choice of a name is never straightforward. Ambiguity reigns supreme; the name chooser may or may not act consciously. This calls into question the very definition of a revolutionary first name. "

Notes: [First names and revolution, 1775-1825: propositions for a new methodological approach].
Abstract: Publisher's abstract " As an indication of the effect of a revolution on the culture, ideas and relationships of individuals, the study of given first names offers an important insight, but not without significant methodological problems. For revolutionary France, by extending the research surrounding first names chronologically beyond the immediate revolutionary period and categorically to include even not explicitly revolutionary names, scholars should be able to better document changing attitudes, such as relaxed religious adherence, and generational differences that can be best perceived in their long-term effects.

Notes: [Male first names in Rennes during the revolution, 1785-1805]
Abstract: Publisher's abstract " Confining a study of revolutionary first names runs the risk of unevenly illuminating the way names react to political events, for example, to the upheavals of Year II; a lack of names in a particular group may give the impression that the group is inert. The article demonstrates the need to widen the scope and include the entire stock of forenames. In Rennes, where the register of Christian names shows strong resistance to the years of the revolution, Year II (1793-94) yields an unusual crop of short forenames, as if long forenames were considered aristocratic.

This can be seen in the case of Munich during the period 1787-1876, where over 90% of Catholic newborn babies were given saints' names in the late 18th century. As secularization grew that number dropped to about 60% by the late 19th century. "

Notes: Reprinted 1978
Abstract: 'The Dutch system of naming in America was different to that of the English. The dominant system was the patronymic (Jansen, 'Jan's son', Abrahamszen 'Abraham's son'). Other surname origins were placename (Opdyck, 'on the dike', Hoogland, 'highland'), occupation (Bleecker, 'bleacher', Cuyler , 'archer') and personal characteristics (de Grout , 'big man', Vroom 'pious'). 51 refs.
