Summary/Abstract: The research object of the present text are Bulgarian masculine personal nouns derived from Neo-Latin ones. The main aim is to present a complete list of them and their initial meaning as well. The excerpted examples are classified according to the type of the basic word, used during the process of name derivation, as a part of speech (i.e., if it is a proper name or an appellative (a common noun, an adjective, etc.)). An additional extralinguistic classification is made according to the canonization of the researched names, i.e., if it is a name of a saint, and, if the saint is canonized only by the Orthodox Church, by the Catholic one, or by the both of them.
