Abstract Proper name is very important for identification of an object or person. If a name is mispronounced or written incorrectly, it can be considered as the distortion of an identity in the sense of personality of a man. The aim of this article is to reveal the reasons of name distortions (negligence, lack of language, bilingualism, intercultural communication, mutual influence of Kazakh and Russian nationalities) which lead to various kinds of serious consequences such as complication of identification of a name bearer. Restoration and recovery process of historical names, fixing of unified rules for transferring of Kazakh proper names into other languages in Kazakhstan, proves the growth of ethnic self-consciousness of Kazakh people, the formation of value system and understanding of their national identity. While naming children, modern Kazakh families now give preference to attraction of national elements -uly/-kyzy or using non-affix instead of Russian suffixes -ev,-ov,-in, -eva, -ova,-ina in the formation of Kazakh patronymics. Proper names, as it is known, have a complex semantic structure, unique particularities in the form and etymology, ability to modify and formation of word in their target language. Ignoring these features while transferring them into another language can bring to some kinds of misunderstanding and dissatisfaction. That is why we need the lexicographic resources containing all Kazakh proper names (though in the sense of quantity, proper names are huge corpus of lexis) which Public Service Centre workers will take into account.
