Abstract

This article explores the linguistic phenomenon of affixoids, focusing on their presence in anthroponymy, particularly in Uzbek and Khorezm epics. Affixoids such as -jan, -bek, -khan, and -bibi are commonly used inpersonal names and have remained viable through time, despite the evolution of language. Through an analysis of epic texts, the study highlights how these affixoid components perform stylistic and artistic functions, serving to enrich the meaning of names. Some affixoids, like bibi, retain gender specificity and symbolic importance in Islamic culture, while others have become archaic. The paper also examines the structural aspects of complex anthroponyms and how affixoids contribute to both meaning and characterization within epic narratives.
