In this article the author represents names of the Ukrainian football teams of Halychyna in the 1st half of the ХХth century. The aim of the survey to represent a small segment of the Ukrainian onyms vocabulary in the sports – names of Ukrainian football teams which still have not been the object of description in Ukrainian onomastics. Names of football teams of Halychyna in the 1st half of the ХХth century are complicated nominations, in structure of which both abbreviation and the very onyms component are combined. One part of the name is an abbreviation which is the result of language economy and points out either national or territorial membership of the football team. The other component of the complex name is an onyms or common noun. Whereas abbreviation components do not show a great variety, onyms parts are represented rather widely. Among onyms there are localities, ethnographic regions of Ukraine, and also place names historically important for the Ukrainians, hydronyms, oronyms and anthroponyms. Common names make up a smaller group: names of natural phenomena, relief and natural areas, names of birds, names of state and national symbols etc. The majority of Halychyna football clubs names represent stable associations with historical, geographical and cultural realities of Ukraine, and they also contain connotations that are important for the Ukrainians. These nominations testify careful choice of representative names for Ukrainian football clubs
