Abstract

The problem of naming tradition in cross-cultural situations, caused by extensions of international matrimonies, is quite a new phenomenon. Earlier, it was prohibited due to cultural norms, cultural patterns, which controlled everything. It makes us realize, that our life, thanks to the process of globalization, is full of borderline's phenomena, which become not an exception, but a rule, because the clash of cultures is happening every second and makes us to think comprehensively. We endeavour to rethink all notions about the world and reality, this leads us in turn to use interdisciplinary methods, and bring together knowledge from different fields - in the case of this article, from linguistics, anthropology and philosophy. To observe the name, the anthroponym as a cultural code, people build up new ways of communication, overcoming their customs, traditions, national cultures for finding a path to the Other, and establishing meaningful relationships. That's the only one guarantee for saving our world.
