“…Depending on the caller's consent, all the telephone calls of the consultation line are recorded and subsequently saved in an electronic database. The database of enquiries addressed to the Language Consulting Centre has been continually updated since 2016 (for more details concerning the technical aspects of the database in English, see Zajíc et al, 2018Zajíc et al, , 2019.

The paper is based on the enquiries addressed to the Language Consulting Centre of the Czech Language Institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences, which have been published (together with the relevant answers) in an online database, enabling its users to carry out detailed searches thanks to elaborate linguistic annotation. The focus is on enquiries related to Czech forms of foreign proper names, especially toponyms. The queries concerning this topic are analysed not only from the quantitative point of view (i.e. what categories and types of names, along with which source languages, cause problems most frequently), but particularly from the point of view of the enquirers’ attitudes to the issues they discuss. Besides the cases when the client only tries to obtain certain information, enquiries connected with uncertainty about the appropriateness of the usage of Czech forms of foreign proper names are recorded; these queries are sometimes connected with the explicit negative criticism of these phenomena.

Since as early as 1946, Czech language users have been able to consult their questions with the Czech Language Consulting Centre by phone. Since 2019, there is a software database available, making the unique data of obtained inquiries accessible to the public. This paper introduces those parts of this database that are connected with proper names (not only the origin and interpretation of proper names, but also their pronunciation, spelling, declension, etc.), identifies the categories of the most frequent queries and presents examples of questions. Onomastic inquiries are specific due to the fact that to answer them, an interdisciplinary approach, knowledge of foreign languages and orientation in the entire contemporary multicultural world are necessary.
