Summary/Abstract: The article deals with derivation and development peculiarities of the East Baltic names of the phytonym Rubus. Due to the present zoonymic argumentation of origin of the phytonym, latter-day etymological evaluation of the Lith. aviẽtė 2, dial. aviet 3b, avtė 1, avtė 2, avėt 3a, Latv. avene is criticized. Besides the derivational analysis of lexemes of the multiform Latvian phytonym Rubus, etymological research of the apparent morphological or semantic equivalents of Lith. dial. aš(v)óklė, ašóklis, ašóklė, vašóklis, vaišóklis, vaišókšlis, vaišvóklis, Latv. dial. àitu uôgas is also presented.
