Logonym

Logonym is a polysemic term, and a neologism (coined from Greek: λόγος / word, and Greek: ὄνομα / name). The term has several meanings, spanning across different fields of study. It was primarily defined as a term that designates various types of titles, including titles of literary and other artistic works,[1] and also came to designate titles of business firms and their products, including their acronyms.[2] The term also has a specific meaning in biological classification,[3] and some authors have used the term as an alternative designation for the proper names of languages,[4] but such use could not replace previously established onomastic terms (linguonyms, glossonyms, glottonyms),[5] that are commonly used as designations for the onomastic class of language names.[6][7][8][9][10]
