Abstract

This article represents the study of anthroponymic astionyms in the United States, i.e. city or town names derived from personal given names. Different linguistic, cultural, and historical information is carried by this sort of toponym. This study will classify them on several levels and attempt to demonstrate how the creation of anthroponymic astionyms from given names contributes to the preservation of the cultural and historical memory of the American people.
