dc.description.abstract | The paper focuses on Spanish compound names with the preposition de (e.g. María de la
Concepción, Juan de los Santos, Catalina de Santiago, etc.) retrieved from baptismal books
in Seville prior to 1600. This research was outlined years ago by Ramón Menéndez Pidal who
studied names with Marian dedication, based mostly on the 17th and 18th centuries sources.
The paper reprises the theme but in a more elaborate way: the study is based on baptismal
registers from the century preceding 1600 when Menéndez Pidal began his research and
on the baptismal books of all parishes of Seville, which makes it possible to draw reliable
quantitative conclusions. Besides, the study considers all kinds of names with the preposition
de. The corpus contain two kinds of such names: compounds with Marian dedications and those
containing a saint’s name (e.g. Fernando de San Pedro, Elvira de San Vicente, Juan de Santo
Agustín, etc.). In the 16th century such names were relatively rare: only 115 children are found to
have been baptised with a compound name containing preposition de, such names being based
on the combination of a fi rst name with one of only 30 dedicative elements (de San Pedro, de
la Concepción, etc.). Female names with Marian dedications were almost twice as frequent as
compounds with a saint’s name. The analysis shows that in the last case, the choice of the name
depended on the catholic calendar: in the overwhelming majority of cases, the newborn baby
got baptised immediately on the corresponding saint’s day or some days around this date (all
deviances from this practice are discussed in the paper). It is also found that prior to 1600
names with de were characteristic of the most disadvantaged social groups, especially slaves
and abandoned children, where the dedicative element that followed the preposition served as
a substitute of a missing second name. | es |
