Onomastica Canadiana publishes original research articles, review

aspects of onomastics — the study of names and naming practices or
trends in all languages, cultures, periods, and areas. The online
journal provides an interdisciplinary platform for exploring the
linguistic, cultural, historical, geographical, literary, social, and
theoretical aspects of naming.

studies, including but not limited to:

practices or policies
 - Literary and artistic onomastics
 - Scientific nomenclatures
 - Brand and corporate names, names in media and communication
 - Names and identity, culture, politics, or registration
 - Theoretical and methodological approaches to name studies
 - Interdisciplinary perspectives linking onomastics to arts,
linguistics, literature, history, geography, sociology, anthropology,
demography, or cultural studies
