Abstract
The article deals with the relevance of a new discursive approach to onomastic vocabulary. The onym is considered as a unit that represents a compressed text, which can be expanded under certain conditions. In addition, reverse processes are possible - the compression of discourse to a minimum set of lexical units (a single word or a phrase). There are four important components in the discursive field of an onym: the nominator (the author of the name - N), an onym (the name of the object - O), the recipient (the perceiving subject - P) and the discourse-text (D) connected with an onym. We explain the discursive nature of the onym through the concept of the discursive field, which is a combination of all texts, existing in discours, included in the nominative situation both initially (in the process of nominating an object) and involved in communication during the functioning of the onym in the discursive practices of native speakers.
