Ars nominandi dicitur quae se ad nomina propria perspicienda confert, consideratis eorum generibus ordinibus mutationibusque. Ars onomastica, medio saeculo XIX exorta, tamquam linguisticae pars habetur, atque quodammodo cum historia geographiaque convenit.

Onomastica dividitur in anthroponomasticam et toponomasticam:

Anthroponomastica

Anthroponomastica nominibus hominum incumbit:

  1. Praenominibus
  2. Gentiliciis nominibus
  3. Cognominibus
  4. Agnominibus

Anthroponomastica magnum habet momentum ad interpretanda historiam, instituta et mentes cuiusque aetatis.

Toponomastica

Toponomastica nomina locorum investigat:

  1. Administrationis divisionum et viarum
  2. Fluminum
  3. Lacuum
  4. Locorum in extera lingua
  5. Marium et oceanorum
  6. Urbium
