Gender Features of Mythonyms: A Systematic Analysis

 

Abstract

 

This study investigates the gender features of mythonyms—names with mythological significance or symbolic function—across diverse cultural mythological systems. Through systematic analysis of linguistic markers, cultural context, and semantic content of mythonyms, this research identifies patterns in gender representation and attribution in mythological nomenclature. Findings reveal that mythonyms exhibit distinct gender features that reflect broader cultural attitudes toward gender, power dynamics, and social organization. The research indicates that gendered mythonyms function as cultural artifacts that encode and transmit gender norms while simultaneously providing insight into historical gender conceptualizations. This paper contributes to the fields of onomastics, comparative mythology, and gender studies by providing a framework for understanding how gender manifests in mythological naming conventions across cultures.

Keywords: mythonyms, gender features, onomastics, comparative mythology, linguistic markers, cultural symbolism
