U radu se na osnovi osobnih imena krštenika ispisanih iz matičnih knjiga krštenih štrigovske Župe svete Marije Magdalene iščitavaju značajke toga dijela antroponimije u 18. stoljeću. Od različitih podataka koje sadržavaju matične knjige krštenih, upravo su antroponimijski podaci najbrojniji, a među njima čestotnošću se izdvajaju osobna imena – iz matičnih zapisa doznajemo osobno ime krštenika, osobna imena njegovih roditelja i kumova te većinom i osobno ime krstitelja. Dijete se u analiziranim štrigovskim maticama spominje samo osobnim imenom koje mu se na krštenju nadijeva, a roditelji, kumovi i krstitelj navode se antroponimijskom formulom koju čini osobno ime i tada već uglavnom ustaljeno prezime. Građu za ovaj rad crpili smo iz triju matičnih knjiga krštenih koje se odnose na 18. stoljeće – iz (najstarije) štrigovske matice (1685. – 1739.) te iz matica koje sadržavaju upise 1740. – 1785. i 1786. – 1825. Parish registers of baptisms contain different types of information, among which anthroponymic information is most abundant, with first names (of children, parents and godparents) most prominent in their frequency. Starting from information excerpted from the registers of baptisms of the parish of Štrigova, written in Latin, the personal names of children born in the selected years of the 18th century are analysed in this paper. It is concluded that the children are only mentioned by their first names, while an anthroponymic formula consisting of the first name and family name is used for parents and godparents. The first names of children are almost exclusively of saintly origin (e.g. Helena, Magdalena, Catharina ; Nicolaus, Matthias, Joannes ), one-word (consisting of a single word), and are mainly given according to the calendar principle (i.e. the child is given the name of the saint whose feast day is close to the child's birthday), while the inheritance of the parents’ first names or the naming of children after godparents is significantly rarer. The influence of local saints’ cults (in Štrigova, churches are dedicated to St Mary Magdalene and St Jerome) was diversely reflected in the Štrigova 18th century antroponymicon – the first name Magdalena was given to girls very frequently, while the first name Jeronim was given to boys very rarely.
