Resumo: This study presents a reflection on the anthropomorphic forms of Wapichana nomination, with emphasis on the strategies natives use in the elaboration of a focal symbolic language for the person. It is an ethnographic research, whose objective is to show how the Wapichana of the village Malacacheta, Moon's Saw region, Cantá municipality, Roraima state, people of the Arawak linguistic family, shape the perception of themselves through forms symbolic, so that the body can be thought of as the matrix of cultural symbols and forms an object of social significance. The proposal consists in problematizing how the polyphonic forms of nomination, that is, designative names, self-designations, jocular names and tecnonyms, interfere processes of communication of the body with the world. Nominating implies making bodies and this practice is supplemented by the decoration, affirmation and ritualization of the bodies themselves. The epistemological foundation of this production converges to the postulates of person and personal onomastics. Body, blood, breath and name, regardless of the symbolic order, are the components that inform the person in the Malacacheta village. It is inferred that a personal name or pidian yy goes back to the place that the human body occupies in the vision of the natives, that is, it supposes the polyphonic forms of self-determination that they elaborate by itself, on itself and for itself.
