| Rezumat: | [Comparing self-attributed carnival place nicknames with nicknames attributed by neigboring towns: Do they refer to the same spatial unit?] Insulting names for inhabitants of towns, attributed by neighboring settlements, are widespread in the Netherlands. Sometimes, a cluster of two or more towns shares an inhabitants’ nickname. In due course, many inhabitant nicknames turned into honorary nicknames which, in their turn, formed the basis for self-attributed place nicknames, used during the Dutch carnival season. Dutch carnival is a typically local feast. Carnival nicknames can thus be supposed to reflect the spatial unit the inhabitants identify themselves with most. On the contrary, insulting inhabitant nicknames seem to reflect the spatial unit perceived by the ‘neighbors’. The paper demonstrates that outsiders often perceive clusters of adjoining towns as two of a kind, whereas the towns themselves see differences. This is probably the result of the out-group homogeneity effect. |
