This article analyzes the lexical-semantic richness of personal nouns. Personal nouns are among the most important lexical units of a language, as they convey personal, social, and cultural meanings through individuals’ names, surnames, and epithets. The study explores the semantic scope of personal nouns, their synonymic and phraseological connections, as well as their lexical characteristics and stylistic features. Furthermore, the lingvosemantic analysis of personal nouns demonstrates their lexical richness and contribution to the communicative potential of language. This research is of practical and theoretical significance in the fields of linguistics, onomastics, and lexicology.
