O imieniu Krystyna - szkic onomastyczno-teologiczny

Abstract

This article is an attempt to characterize the name Krystyna from the onomastic-theological point of view. The presented linguistic analysis is diachronic. On the one hand, it focuses on the presentation of this anthroponym as a baptismal name on the background of nationwide and regional naming traditions, and on the other, describes its popularity in religious names. The study also includes geography and frequency data from individual regions of Poland.
