The article is devoted to the study of personal names from a cognitive point ofview. The study is based on the cognitive concept that speech actually exists not inthe speech, not in linguistic writings and dictionaries, but in consciousness, in themental lexicon, in the language of the brain. The conditions for identifying personal names can encompass not only the context, encyclopedias, and referencebooks, but also the sound form of the word. In the communicative process, duringa free associative experiment, which included a name and a recipient’s mentallexicon. The recipient was assigned a task to quickly give some association to thename. The aggregate of a certain number of reactions of different recipients formsthe associative field of a proper name. The associative experiment creates the bestconditions for identifying the lexeme. The definition of a monosemantic personalname primarily includes the search of what it denotes, while during the process of identifying a polysemantic personal name recipients tend have different reactions.Scientific value is posed by the effect of the choice of letters for the name, soundsymbolism, etc. The following belong to the generalized forms of identification:usage of a hyperonym; synonyms and periphrases or simple descriptions; associations denoting the whole (name stimulus) by reference to its part (associatives);cognitive structures such as “stimulus — association” and “whole (stimulus) —part (associative)”; lack of adjacency; mysterious associations. The topicality ofthe study is determined by its perspective to identify the directions of associativeidentification of proper names, which is one of the branches of cognitive onomastics. The purpose of the study is to identify, review, and highlight the directions ofassociative identification of proper names; the object of the research is the namesin their entirety and variety; its subject is the existence of names in the mentallexicon, which determines the need for singling out the directions for the associative identification of the personal names.
