KRAKÓW w derywacji onomastycznej

Abstract

The subject of the paper are derivatives of the name Kraków in toponymy and anthroponymy of Polish and some other languages. They form numerous, varied names (local, regional, ethnic, personal). However, they do not contribute much to the explanation of the name of the city, which, in all likelihood, is derived from the name Krak, supposedly a founder. Attention should also be paid to parallel names from the area of Czech type Krakov, Krakovec, Krakovany, which could indicate their common origin.
