e-Onomastics Reaches 5 Million Visits

 Dear readers, colleagues, and friends of names,

I am delighted to share a special milestone: e-Onomastics has reached 5 million visits.

What began as a space for sharing news, calls for papers, publications, conferences, and reflections on the study of names has grown into a truly international meeting point for everyone interested in onomastics, toponymy, anthroponymy, naming practices, and the cultural life of names.

This milestone belongs not only to the blog, but also to its readers. Thank you for visiting, reading, sharing, commenting, sending news, and keeping the global onomastic conversation alive. Your interest shows that names matter - in scholarship, in society, in history, in identity, and in everyday life.

Over 13.5 years, e-Onomastics has tried to serve as a bridge between researchers, institutions, students, and the wider public with its 4.753 blog posts. Reaching 5 million visits is a wonderful encouragement to continue this work with even more energy and curiosity.

With sincere gratitude to all readers around the world:

Thank you for being part of the e-Onomastics community.
The journey of names continues.
