Abstract: This work discusses the results of a study on the toponymy of Paraná relative to the municipalities in the intermediate region of Cascavel/PR, from the perspective of the semantic dimension evidenced in the toponyms, in terms of motivation (taxonomies) (Dick, 1990; 1992), taking into account, when possible, the denominational cause that motivated the emergence of the toponym. The corpus was extracted from official IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics) maps with a scale between 1:50,000 or 1:100,000 (2010). To retrieve possible denominational causes, the official websites of the municipal governments that make up the selected immediate region were consulted. This study was based, above all, on the contributions of Dick (1990; 1992, 2002); by Dargel and Isquerdo (2020); Isquerdo (2008) and Sapir (1969). The results of the study showed that 66.33% of toponymic taxes belong to an anthropocultural nature, on the other hand, 33.67% of the designations analyzed are classified as physical in nature.
