Abstract

This paper researches the anthropo-toponyms registered in a document of great importance for the Transylvanian anthroponymy and toponymy of the first half of the 14th century. The document is The Register of the Pontifical Tithes for 6 years in Regard to Transylvania (1332-1337), published as Socotelile lui Iacob al lui Berengariu şi Raimund de Bonofato, strângătorii dijmelor De şase ani din Regatul Ungariei, in the volume Documente privind istoria României, veacul C. Transilvania, vol. III (1331-1340) (Bucharest, 1954), doc. 56. The analysis focused on the spread of the Christian anthroponyms in settlement names, the anthropo-toponyms containing saint's names, the large variety of anthroponyms used in establishing settlement names, as well as on new typological categories and possible ways in which an anthropo-toponym could have emerged.
