%X Saˋetak The authors have listed and etymologically analyzed the coastal toponyms of the Dalmatian island of ˋolta as the result of their field research, interviewing the local population and studying the old land registries and nautical charts. Besides the contrastive methods, the results have been analyzed and processed by descriptive methods. By detailed terrain observation, 291 toponyms have been gathered, among which the most numerous are the names of the bays. The research also includes the toponyms which have never been studied in the toponomastics of the Adriatic coast (i.e. Sˋskinja < lat. saxum 每 stone, Grmˋj < lat. grumum 每 pile, Rˋdula < ven. rotola 每 species of seaurchin, Polˋbrnjak < Cro. Rebro 每 rib, ˋpirˋn < ven. sperone 每 rostrum of the ship, Jorjˋ < Cro. orah 每 walnut, Obinˋˋ < Cro. bjeluˋina 每 (inula verbasifolia), Pˋd Mastrˋnke < Cro. mastrinka 每 the tree of wild olive, Prˋjci < Dalm. plagia 每 hillside on the coast < Gr. pl芍gios 每 kos 每 sloping, Zˋ Zmajˋnac < Cro. zmajur 每 species of snake < PS *zm抆j抆, ˋorˋˋne < Ital. Giorgio, Dˋnje Vˋne < OS vin抓n抓). For some names mentioned in the previous bibliography new etymological solution has been offered (i.e. Balkˋn < Lat. balco 每 pile; ˋipˋva < Lat. siphonata 每 draining, Pˋlegrin < Lat. St. Pelegrinus). According to their origin, the toponyms have been classified into the Romance ones, which include the pre-Slavic and Dalmatoromance (i.e. Kaˋjˋn, Komˋn, Piˋkˋra, Stomˋrska), Venetian and Italian toponyms (i.e. Kaˋˋla/e, Lantˋrna, ˋˋˋula, ˋpirˋn) and those Slavic formed in the period of the arrival of the first Croatian population to the island, as well as those more recent which are the result of the migrations of the new population (i.e. Dragobrˋˋa, Kˋlebova Stˋna, Pripˋliˋˋe, Zaˋˋˋtak). The multi-word toponyms of the combined origin have also been studied (i.e. Glˋva Sˋskinje, Kˋzjak Gˋrma, ˋirˋka Pˋnta, Tovˋrja ˋkˋna). In the semantic classification, the toponyms are grouped in 9 categories: the names formed according to the geographic terms (i.e. Gˋka, Jˋma, Mˋla Lˋda, Spˋle), their appearance and metaphors (i.e. Bˋskup Rˋt, Gˋrnja Gˋlica, Lˋvka, Motˋka), according to the characteristics of soil (i.e. Gnjilˋna, Kˋmik, Mˋla Stinjˋva, Savˋra), according to their features (i.e. Crvˋni Rˋd, Grˋˋavi Ratˋc, Hrˋpavica, Pˋd zˋ Plˋˋu), names of plants (i.e. Grˋbova Gˋrma, Koromˋˋina Mˋla i Vˋla, Mˋslinica, Vˋla Trˋvna), names of animals (i.e. Kˋlebova Stˋna, Mˋla Golubˋnja Gˋrma, Pˋnta Govˋdica, Vr芍njac), activities (i.e. Bˋnje, Cetˋnska Pasˋka, Nˋ Kˋbel, Piˋkˋra), historically conditioned names
