This study examines how contemporary Turkic society perceives sacred Muslim names, with particular emphasis on shifting attitudes toward their usage. The usage of sacred anthroponyms in these regions has evolved under the influence of various social, cultural, and historical factors. Muslim names have long been central to the religious and cultural identity of these societies. However, processes such as modernization, globalization, and urbanization have led to substantial changes in their usage. Despite these developments and the growing trend of secularization, the concept of 'sacred anthroponyms' remains an ongoing subject of debate. This paper deals with a significant aspect of Turkic anthroponyms: proper names derived from religious beliefs. A comprehensive methodological approach, integrating both linguistic and sociocultural analyses, facilitates a nuanced understanding of the role of Muslim names in preserving traditional cultural values. This paper aims to investigate the extent to which sacred anthroponyms are preserved across generations within the category of proper names. By analyzing the spiritual and pragmatic features of sacred anthroponyms, the study assesses the influence of socio-cultural transformations on their perception within modern Turkic societies. This study opens up avenues for comparative research in other linguistic or cultural groups undergoing similar socio-cultural transformations, particularly in post-Soviet or Muslim-majority contexts. The findings make a contribution to preserving cultural heritage and understanding naming practices in the context of globalization and provide a basis for future research on the intersection between name choices, self-perception, and social identity.

This article examines the archaic bookish words presented in the works of the great Kazakh poet and thinker Abai Kunanbayuly. The purpose of the article is identifying the specifics of the use of archaisms and bookish words in Abai’s works, as well as their role in the formation of the aesthetic and philosophical content of the literary texts. In the context of the study of archaic bookish words in the works of Abai Kunanbayuly, the study allowed us to identify the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the word frequency according to parts of speech used. The analysis is based on a linguostatistical approach, using a quantitative method to determine the word frequency, contextual use and semantic connections of archaic vocabulary. The results of the analysis showed that the most frequently used parts of speech are verbs (14,956 examples) and nouns (14,119 examples). This frequency reflects the dynamic and descriptive nature of Abai’s works, as well as their connection with traditional culture and philosophy. The study shows that the author’s use of archaisms highlights the richness of the Kazakh language while playing a key role in preserving cultural and historical traditions. It connects the heritage of the past with the values of modernization. The findings of the study confirm that archaic vocabulary demonstrates the richness of the lexical and semantic potentials of the Kazakh language. The results obtained can be useful for further study of the lexico-semantic features of Abai’s works and the role of archaic bookish words on the development of the modern Kazakh language.
