The paper focuses on the significance that Australian Indigenous people in general give to the meaning and use of proper names of people and places and how with some exceptions, this neglect continues today. It investigates this neglect through the reflection of the prevailing preoccupation of anthropologists and linguists with the semantico-referential meanings and functions of language rather than with the culturally shared notions and images all names evoke, provoke and embody.
