The paper discusses the process of creating feminine names derived from pre-existing masculine names (including names of occupations) and its reception. A consideration of contemporary trends leads to conclusions relating to how the users of natural languages perceive phenomena and reality, including their hierarchy of values and social relations. It is people (common language users, non-specialists) that (as demonstrated by practice) decide the final shape of language communication. Intergender relations, communication and social role assignment (and the reasoning behind them) are also considered.
