ANTHROPONYM AS A REFLECTION OF THE NATIONAL-CULTURAL SPECIFICITY OF LINGUISTIC CONSCIOUSNESS

In each society, individuals are designated by specific appellations that are accepted within that society. In contemporary social contexts, these names are typically classified into three categories, each serving a distinct purpose: personal names, patronymics, and surnames. The concept of the surname has undergone a highly complex process of development. Over time, the term came to be used for a variety of other purposes, including as a designation for nicknames, place names, and professional names. Eventually, it evolved into a linguistic category used to identify family members according to the paternal line. The Oghuz group was constituted on the basis of type word categories. The relevance of investigating the origin and distribution of surnames and the formants that shape surnames in Turkic languages is contingent upon the growing interest of Turkic peoples in their historical roots. This interest is a common phenomenon among all peoples in the era of modern globalization. From this perspective, the investigation of the circumstances surrounding the advent of surnames, the evolution of official anthroponymic formants that distinguish individuals within the Turkic communities, is a matter of both scientific and social significance.
