Abstract

Giving self-naming, or ‘pattelareng,’ is a Buginese concept that differs from the naming system in other cultures. The self-naming represents the Buginese community’s identity that includes symbols, meaning, or cultural markers. In the Buginese culture, a self-naming system, or ‘pattelareng,’ is assigned to them based on their aims and objectives; aside from the meaning, the naming to the Buginese people also concerns the unique pattern or shape. Cultural values are inextricably linked to the naming of the Buginese society. This study investigates the pattern and meaning of naming or ‘pattelareng’ for the Buginese community. The research was carried out utilizing qualitative methodologies, with data collected through observation and literature review. The data was analyzed using a sociolinguistic technique based on various theories, including Onomastics and Semantics. The study’s findings demonstrate that the Buginese naming system is based on social status, gender, biological attributes, personality, behavior, hope, natural events, and specific situations in general. Meanwhile, language’s position in the Buginese community’s naming system, or ‘pattelareng,’ provides a meaning interpretation that includes positive and negative qualities. In addition, the modern Buginese name system has changed in both form and meaning. Self-naming has become more straightforward, more efonic, and has adopted more names from other cultures.
