This article presents reflections on the distinctive features of anthroponyms, their classification, functions within literary texts, the influence of intertextual anthroponyms on the national culture, and their specific significance. Views on the intertextual transfer of anthroponyms are analyzed. It is observed that the most common anthroponyms in fiction are associated with human mental activity and consciousness, and their conceptualization is rooted in humanity's experiences from both distant and recent past. When comparing intertextual anthroponyms in the Uzbek language, it is highlighted that names in works created across different periods form an interconnected intertextual system without losing their value over time, demonstrating their interdependence. The reasons for this phenomenon are attributed to people's cognitive knowledge, as well as the experiences, culture, and traditions of the people, which have helped determine the origins of intertextual anthroponyms.
