The subject of the study was the unofficial names of men and their reflection in folk speech. The object is the South Russian dialect. The linguistic material is the dialectal speech of older representatives, recorded by the author of the article in the process of direct communication. The work used the following methods: survey and interviewing, stationary observation, analysis, description and comparison. The research results are reflected in 90 anthroponyms that make up the village name list. In it, some street names act as metaphors and are associated with representatives of the animal world, birds, and objects of the surrounding reality. The expressive coloration of anthroponyms speaks of a different linguistic palette, from tenderness to rudeness. The illustration of the data obtained by means of the Russian dialect revealed the functioning of different ways of forming nicknames, among which the suffix and shortening of the surname are productive. The established tradition of communication between people in a rural environment is a convenient and stable structure over time. It became part of the local dialect system.
