Abstract
The traditional names of the Mountain Jews is not much different from the names of other Jewish groups. Differences are observed only in the relatively small number of names borrowed from neighboring Caucasian peoples, characteristic of the anthroponyms of Mountain Jews. Another difference is the presence in it of a number of names that have a clear Mountain-Jewish etymology. These include a fairly large group of female names with floral semantics. Mountain Jews also have several names in the form of spells and wishes aimed at preserving and multiplying male offspring.
