Summary/Abstract: The aim of this study is to present the motivational, structural and name-forming analysis of one part of the Czech hydronymy localized in the Moravian-Silesian Region. The list of the hydronyms consists of 817 names and includes standardized names as well as names suitable for standardization. The names of streams and rivers, and the names of water bodies (dams, ponds, etc.) are analysed separately because they are of different characters which was actually confirmed by the analysis. The names of streams and rivers were most often motivated by the localization of the naming ob¬jects, and the names of water bodies we motivated by the nature of these objects.
