This article focuses on the subject of mountain glaciers in Uzbekistan, including their geographical position, the origin of glacionyms (geographical names of glaciers), their interpretations, and their interrelation with physiographic factors and natural conditions. The analysis is based on the Piskom basin and adjacent areas. In the toponymy of the Piskom basin, physical geographical terms such as “tor”, “say (suv, bulak)”, “ashuv”, “tash”, “bel” and their areas have been determined, and the share of these terms in the formation of toponyms has been determined. Based on the fact that more than 65% of the toponyms of the basin were formed at the expense of the above physical geographical terms, the physical geographical basis of the toponymy of the area has been scientifically proven. Various sources have provided suggestions and recommendations on the writing of Piskom basin glacionyms and their correct use in practice.
