ENThe article carries the toponyms recorded in the 1935-1939 interwar questionnaires of Lithuanian land names of the Seirijai county district of the Alytus district. Their formation and origin are discussed. During the interwar period, 59 questionnaires were filled out for settlements in the Seirijai county district, in which the names of over 1,000 various objects were recorded. There are mostly the names of meadows, as well as the names of fields, hills or marshes. Sometimes the names of more interesting objects are mentioned, such as a stone, a gully, a place with many tree stumps, a steep slope, a bridge. In terms of formation, secondary place names predominate (appr. 78 %). Primary toponyms account for less than a quarter of all place names discussed (appr. 20 %). Derivatives of suffixes predominate among secondary place names. The most common of them are -in- and -isk- with different endings. In terms of origin, most place names are derived from common words (appr. 75 %). They are most often associated with nouns used in the Lithuanian language (including Slavic or German borrowings). Place names of foreign origin usually have connections with Slavic (Polish, Belarusian, Russian) words. Significantly fewer names of places associated with real proper names have been recorded (appr. 19 %) and very few come from other place names (appr. 5 %). The origin of some toponyms may be interpreted in several ways or is unclear. Most of the names (to be more precise, lexemes) are met only once and denote only one object in the Seirijai county district. However, some place names are more common; in several settlements more than one different object carries the same name. Keywords: toponymies, index of toponyms of interwar Lithuania, Seirijai county district, origin of toponyms, formation of toponyms. [From the publication]
