AB  - This edited book examines names and naming policies, trends and practices in a variety of multicultural contexts across America, Europe, Africa and Asia. In the first part of the book, the authors take theoretical and practical approaches to the study of names and naming in these settings, exploring legal, societal, political and other factors. In the second part of the book, the authors explore ways in which names mirror and contribute to the construction of identity in areas defined by multiculturalism. The book takes an interdisciplinary approach to onomastics, and it will be of interest to scholars working across a number of fields, including linguistics, sociology, anthropology, politics, geography, history, religion and cultural studies. Oliviu Felecan is a Professor in the Faculty of Letters at the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania. Alina Bughesiu is a Lecturer in the Faculty of Letters at the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania.
