So...[edit]

The list here should only include members like characteronym that do not have a trailing o in their prefix? A) That's not an actual word; B) similar such words have nothing to do with a special alt Greek etymology but are simply being formed on the model of anonymous and pseudonymous. There are a very few legitimate examples (as synonym), but those are all currently (and most helpfully) listed at -nym at the moment.

Shouldn't this simply be folded into -nym and treated as an alt form? — LlywelynII 19:07, 1 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
