Annotation: This article examines the role of eponyms—terms derived from the names of people, places, or things—in English and Uzbek dance terminologies, highlighting their historical and cultural contexts. Eponyms serve to honor influential figures, iconic performances, and distinctive styles, thereby offering insights into the origins and cultural significance of various dance forms. In English dance terminology, eponyms such as "Fosse style" and "Graham technique" commemorate legendary dancers and choreographers, while terms like "waltz," "Giselle," "fouetté," and "Isadora" encapsulate specific movements and styles. Similarly, Uzbek dance terminology uses eponyms like "Tanovar," "Lazgi," and "Yalla" to reflect cultural heritage and regional identities. The article underscores the importance of eponyms in connecting past traditions with present-day practices, thereby enriching our appreciation of dance as both an art form and a cultural expression. By exploring the use of eponyms in dance, this study provides a deeper understanding of the traditions, innovations, and creative legacies that continue to inspire dancers globally. Key words: eponyms, choreographs, waltz, Giselle, cultural expression
