Abstract
The study deals with proper names in former Eastern Sudeten caves (The Na Špičáku Cave and The Na Pomezí Cave) from the perspective of diachrony. It investigates the changes of the names over time, especially in the interwar period and the post-war period. The tradition of studying speleonyms on the Czech/European scales is presented in the introduction and the study shows the basic classification of speleonyms. Furthermore, it characterizes both inspected localities. Collecting data was performed in a qualitative way via semi-structured interviews with respondents. At the end of the study, the partial results of the research in every examined locality are presented and generalized.
