Abstract. The article examines and analyzes the means to use anthroponyms as the common names in the French argot. The paper aims to describe linguistic nominations re-interpreting the meaning of a proper name and to examine the variants of attributing the certain connotational meaning to them. The research findings allow concluding that, coming into a certain linguistic stratum (in this case - low argot vocabulary), re-interpreted anthroponym changes its semantics fixing the new meaning, and later on can become a valuable linguistic symbol of the behaviour of the certain culture bearers.
Key words and phrases: антропоним, арготический квазионим, процесс номинации, коннотативное значение, сниженная лексика, anthroponym, argot quasi-onym, process of nomination, connotational meaning, low vocabulary
