Hi Lesley,
My book deals with this topic for western Arnhem Land:
Garde, M. (2013). Culture, Interaction and Person Reference in an
Australian Language: a Bininj Gunwok ethnography of communication.
Culture and Language Use, Studies in Anthropological Linguistics, John
Benjamins.
Garde, M. (2008). Person reference, proper names and circumspection in
Bininj Kun-wok conversation. In I. Mushin & B. Baker (Eds.), Discourse
and Grammar in Australian Languages (Vol. 104, pp. 203-232). Amsterdam:
John Benjamins.
But see also Joe Blythe's PhD thesis (and other publications by him on
similar topics):
Blythe Joe. 2009a. Doing Referring in Murriny Patha Conversation. Ph.D.
dissertation, University of Sydney.
regards,
Murray Garde

Subject: [RNLD] Publications - Personal naming practices in Indigenous
groups in Australia
Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if anyone knows of fairly recent publications that talk
about naming practices of people by Indigenous groups in Australia. For
example, suffixes that are used on proper nouns when used as terms of
address.
I have some older references: Austin 1978 & Breen 1971 but I was
wondering if there were more recent publication out there.
Any help would be most appreciated.
Cheers
Lesley
