Abstract
The research object of the present text is Polish personal names (and their variants), derived from a Roman praenomen. The aim is to present their full list and their initial meaning as well.
The researched anthroponyms are divided into three groups according to: 1) the type of the appellative used as a base during the process of derivation; 2) the model used for anthroponym coined from a Latin name; 3) the canonization by the Catholic church, the Orthodox one, or by both of them.
Key words: Polish personal name, Roman praenomen
