Abstract

The first part of the paper is a presentation of a doctoral thesis Hispano-romanisches Namenbuch submitted at the University of Trier (to be published in 2009 in the series 'Patronymica Romanica' by Niemeyer, Tübingen). The thesis is dedicated to the personal names of pre-Roman, Greek and Latin-Romance etymology in the Christian North of the Iberian Peninsula in the medieval period (6th-12th centuries). Comments on primary sources and structure are followed by a sample article (*Aurundo) from the thesaurus. In the second part of the paper a particular aspect of the Ibero-Romance onomasticon, which is its multicultural etymolo- gical composition, is discussed. Examples of medieval and modern personal names typical for each etymological layer (pre-Roman, Latin, Hebrew, Visigothic, Arabic, Franconian, Gallo-Romance) conclude the survey.
