Abstract

This article examines the street names (odonyms) which refer to Romania in the Italian odonymic repertoire, examining the typology and motivations underlying their creation. From the analysis, it appears that the identified names belong to the category of toponyms and anthroponyms, and that in the Italian context of street names they were assigned for encyclopaedic or celebratory-commemorative purposes. For the latter, places and important figures were chosen for their ties to centres that included them in their street name repertoire.
