Die Naturgewalt in deutschen Familiennamen / Żywioły w nazwiskach niemieckich

Abstract

The subject of the paper is German surnames derived from names denoting elements. The research material originates from the following dictionaries: Hans Bahlow, 1976, Deutsches Namenlexikon. Familien- und Vornamen nach Ursprung und Sinn erklärt, Suhrkamp, Baden-Baden; Josef Karlmann Brechenmacher, 1957–1960, Etymologisches Wörterbuch der Deutschen Familiennamen. A–J, C.A. Starke Verlag, Limburg a.d. Lahn; Josef Karlmann Brechenmacher, 1960–1963, Etymologisches Wörterbuch der Deutschen Familiennamen. K–Z, C.A. Starke Verlag, Limburg a.d. Lahn; Duden. Familiennamen. Herkunft und Bedeutung. Bearbeitet von Rosa und Volker Kohlheim, 2005, Dudenverlag, Mannheim–Leipzig–Wien–Zürich; Max Gottschald, 1954, Deutsche Namenkunde. Unsere Familiennamen nach ihrer Entstehung und Bedeutung, de Gruyter, Berlin; Horst Naumann, 1989, Familiennamenbuch, VEB Bibliographisches Institut, Leipzig. The study is an attempt to search for an answer concerning the derivational morphology of surnames. The corpus subjected to analysis includes non-morphologically-derived surnames, derivatives and sentence-derived surnames. In terms of semantics, the majority of the surnames under analysis are anthroponyms with a single motivation. A few surnames are of Low German origin. Some surnames of the analysed material have graphical varieties.
