Summary/Abstract: Romanian popular literature possesses a very rich stock of formulaic expressions (proverbs, sayings, proverbial expressions, precepts, teachings, verbal stereotypes). These expressions have multiple ways of valorising anthroponomy. The paper aims to examine historical anthroponyms which may be found in the formulaic expressions from a pluridisciplinary perspective: linguistic, cultural-historical, and a perspective that will focus on mentalities.
