Abstract
Since gaining independence, the historical names of many objects in the regions of Kazakhstan have been restored, and the correct Kazakh spellings of distorted names are being reinstated. In order for our onomastic system's names to serve not only our own needs but also to be accessible to the international community, it is essential to first implement standardization in our own language. Although studies on the etymological and linguo-cognitive aspects of onomastics are well developed, problems related to their spelling have not been specifically addressed. This article discusses issues related to the pronunciation and spelling of proper names, as well as orthographic peculiarities. It analyzes studies related to global onomastic orthography. Additionally, it examines the representation of proper names in spelling dictionaries over the years. The article also considers scholars' opinions on the structural and semantic differences between common nouns and proper nouns, discussing their distinctive features.
