Principle of Neonymy  

Definition

  • Explicit replacement of an available nomen by a different nomen results in the introduction of a neonym, which has the same onomatophore as the replaced nomen (archaeonym) but a different auctor and a different date. A neonym having the same etymology as its archaeonym is an autoneonym, whereas a neonym having a partially or completely different etymology is an alloneonym. (Dubois 2013)

Note

  • Etymology: G: νέος (neos), new - ὄνομα (onoma), name.
