Author:  I. V. Bochkaryova

Abstract
In the article the process of meaning formation of a derivative from proper name is described. The process means the exposure of cognitive models corresponding to word-formative meanings and the usage of cognitive mechanisms – perspective, composition, completion and elaboration. Contextual information and the structure of knowledge evoked by the proper name are also to be examined.

Keywords:  derivatives from proper names, conceptual derivation, cognitive model, cognitive mechanism, context
