The article investigates how the political changes (namely the suppression of the individual ownership of land) and the subsequent changes of the landscape influenced the change of the “namescape” in rural localities in the Czech Republic. The analysed data come from the survey of non-settlement names from the territory of Bohemia, organized in the years 1963–1980. In many localities, the new tracts of land came into existence no sooner than in this period, therefore this survey enables us to trace their names in statu nascendi, in the course of their being formed. The names of the newly created tracts of land often had many variants, they were not regularly used, and generally they displayed many traits of instability. The situation strongly differed from one locality to another. In some villages no large tracts of land could come into existence due to hard terrain conditions. In some localities, all the names of the new tracts of land are formed by adoption of the original field names without any changes.
