This article examines the theoretical foundations of English onomastics, focusing on key frameworks like structuralism, generativism, and sociolinguistics. It analyzes historical evolution, methodological approaches, and cultural implications of name studies. Findings highlight onomastics as a bridge between linguistics and cultural anthropology.
