Abstract
It is a well-known fact that commercial names play a dramatic role in
attracting new audience. The article investigates two trends in contemporary
Russian naming: using lexis with ethnocultural semantic components (e.g.
exotic vocabulary, precedent phenomena, and national onomastic elements)
and applying creative linguistic techniques. The sphere of commercial
naming is characterized by increased linguistic creativity determined by
pragmatic reasons. Commercial names appear as a result of this
extraordinary linguistic creativity.
