Abstract. The article for the first time reveals the etymological meaning of ethnonyms wадул and алайии . Wадул is a self-denomination of the Tundra Yukagirs, алайии is a self-denomination of the Tundra Yukaghir clan. The structural and morphological, word-formation and semantic analysis of the self-denomination of the Tundra Yukagirs shows that the ethnonym wадул (as well as одул of the forest Yukagirs) can be translated as "a hard-working man, who does everything carefully, well". The etymological analysis of the ethnonym алайии reveals that this word probably means "strong, persistent, hard-willed people".
