Summary/Abstract: The Paper deals with the theoretical definition of hydronyms, hydronymy and hydronomastics. The mentioned terms are analysed, and about 11 hydronyms from the Lašva Valley have been interpreted. The origin and etymology of those terms are cited. With the hydronym Bílā ikavian jat reflex is recorded. Some hydronyms are of an unknown origin, e.g. the hydronym Ilomska. The Lašva Valley is actually the valley of the Lašva River, so geographically, it is a part of central Bosnia. Historically, in that area there was a medieval parish, and today it includes the towns of Vitez, Travnik, Novi Travnik and Busovača.
