The article belongs to the field of cognitive-oriented research and examines the role of humans in language and culture and the need to study their close relationships. Each culture generates certain types of anthropometaphors, and each such nomination reflects the elements of this culture. Lexical units in a figurative sense, being “universals of consciousness”, can have vivid national and cultural markings or function as globally precedent names. Anthropometaphors are an important source of not only linguistic but also historical and cultural knowledge. The article provides examples of the deconstruction of anthroponyms, filling them with the expressiveness of the appellative, and indicates the main factors in their rethinking.
Key words: anthropometaphor / appellative / anthroponym / national-cultural connotation / linguoculture
