On the origins of personal and place-names in the Tihany Foundation Deed
An overall linguistic description of The Tihany Foundation Deed (1055) was performed by Géza Bárczi in his book “The Tihany Foundation Deed as a Linguistic Record” in 1951. In possession of personal name data of the Arpadian Age turned up recently and with full knowledge of the results of the latest historical and etymological research concerning proper names the author concludes that the opportunity to revise the origins of certain 1055 personal names presents itself. Having collected many personal name data from the Arpadian Age the author concludes that it is necessary to revise the conventional conceptions on the origins of certain 1055 personal names in the light of the results of the latest historical and etymological research concerning proper names. The context of the place-name Tihany, especially the phrase “qui uulgo dicitur” preceding it, makes the author assume that the given place-name had already survived as a tradition in the collective memory of people, thus it must have been born before 1055. Tichon, a personal name of Slavonic origin, served as a basis not for a Hungarian place-name, but for a Slavonic, more precisely for a (Pannonian) Slovenian place-name in the 9th–10th centuries (or even before), which was borrowed by the Hungarians.
