The article discusses some problems related to the formation of proper names in the Karachay-Balkar language and the methods of their research. Today the study of onomastic material, which represents a certain category of words in the language lexical system has received universal recognition. The modern stage of the general linguistics development is characterized by an increasing interest in onomastic research based on the various languages, including Turkic material. Problems of onomastics, the science about proper names, developing at the junction of linguistics, history, ethnography, sociology, geography, are one of the new and leading directions in modern Russian linguistics, in Turkology and Karachay-Balkar linguistics. Anthroponymic vocabulary, which is any language vocabulary integral part, is created on the basis of common names, develops, improves, and moves from one language environment to another. Some anthroponyms are falling out of active use, and new ones are being formed instead. A non-linguistic factors number have a great influence on their functioning. The article presents a close analysis of all these aspects.
