| | |
| The logic behind new names is as follows:
| |
| | |
| Happy and Grumpy are remnants of the [[DwarfNamingScheme|dwarf scheme]]. A good proportion of the shapes fit this pattern, so it's worth having a word for it.
| |
| Biggie is a contraction of "bi-grumpy". Rice is named after Rice Kagona.
| |
| Bicycle is a contraction of "bi-classical". This family is like the usual fifth-generated one, but half the size.
| |
| Mosh is a contraction of "mohajiraish". Mish is related to mosh.
| |
| Father is a temperament name. I think the etymology is a pun on "fourths/thirds" and as such names a shape.
| |
| Bug is another temperament name, from the draft of the first part of Paul's forthcoming magnum opus. If it's too specific to apply to this family, I suggest "bogey" instead.
| |
| "Bi-equal" means the scale is made from two EDOs. There may be a better name for these. They become more important whan you look at complicated temperaments.
| |
| I'm using "fair" and "unfair" to distinguish the large from the small.
| |
| All the names uniquely specify a shape, and if the number of notes doesn't need to be part of the name it isn't. That doesn't mean you'd leave them this terse in practice.
