The present scientific research examines the names of festal events (festivals, exhibitions, shows, contests, campaigns and etc) and their linguistic characteristics. Our purpose is to define the status of such names as proper names and to investigate the structural-semantic features of German and Russian names of festal events. In the course of this investigation we have come to the conclusion that the names are pinned down as a cause of the secondary artificial nomination. In general, the results of our analysis indicate that the identifying method of nomination proves to be the leading one. This fact can be explained by the specificity of the object of nomination, which is understood as an idea or concept underlying any festal event but not a definite object. To summarize the ideas, the choice of the nomination means (semantic, syntactical, word-forming and complex) is dependent not only upon the specific features of the object of nomination but upon the inbuilt potential of the language.
