-onym
The suffix ''-onym'' (from ) is a bound morpheme, that is attached to the end of a root word, thus forming a new compound word that designates a particular ''class'' of names. In linguistic terminology, compound words that are formed with suffix ''-onym'' are most commonly used as designations for various onomastic classes. Most onomastic terms that are formed with suffix ''-onym'' are classical compounds, whose word roots are taken from classical languages (Greek and Latin). For example, onomastic terms like toponym and linguonym are typical classical (or neoclassical) compounds, formed from suffix ''-onym'' and classical (Greek and Latin) root words ( / place; / language). In some compounds, the ''-onym'' morpheme has been modified by replacing (or dropping) the "o". In the compounds like '' ananym'' and '' metanym'', the correct forms ('' anonym'' and ''metonym'') were pre-occupied by other meanings. Other, late 20th century examples, such as ''hypernym'' and '' charactern ...
