Abstract
The paper discusses the problem of choosing a well-grounded spelling of a district name located in the north-west of Moscow. The study examined the use of the ancient toponyms from which the present-day placename originated referring to extant Russian written texts. The specific features of the interpretation of ancient toponyms in cartographic materials and lexicographic sources were shown. Taking into consideration the traced and properly substantiated etymology of these toponyms, the author provides guidelines for their spelling and pronunciation.
