== Ordinal-indexed versus zero-indexed names ==
(Personal notes; may clarify later.)
The use of ordinal indexing for naming mos intervals and degrees is generally discouraged when referring to non-diatonic mos intervals. Ordinal indexing is reserved for describing diatonic interval categories.

== Naming mosses ==
== Changes to mos names ==
The following is a proposal on how to name mosses. There are, of course, exceptions to these rules, as some names are arguably too memorable to change.
 
===Which mosses are worth naming?===
Updates to TAMNAMS around 2022 have imposed a maximum step count of 10. I'm arguing there should be a minimum note count 6 for the following reasons:
 
*Mosses with step counts less than 6 have generator ranges so broad that they encompass multiple temperaments and can be expanded to multiple mosses.
*Mosses 1L 1s, 1L 2s, and 2L 1s have extremely broad generator ranges that it may be difficult to generalize anything about them, let alone compose with them.
*The parents of most of the mosses with note counts 6-10 are mosses with 4-5 notes, so to denote these mosses, it may be better to think of these parents as subsets of those larger mosses instead. When people compose with 2L 3s, for example, they don't invent entirely new notation for that; instead, they use notation for 5L 2s and skip two of the notes.
**1L 3s, parent of 1L 5s and 5L 1s
**3L 1s, parent of 3L 4s and 4L 3s
**1L 5s, parent of 1L 6s and 6L 1s
** 2L 3s, parent of 2L 5s and 5L 2s
**3L 2s, parent of 3L 5s and 5L 3s
**4L 1s, parent of 4L 5s and 5L 4s
*The names for these small mosses differ from the other mos names in that they're meant to be equave-agnostic. It's not that these names would go away; rather, they'd be going somewhere else. (Where is not known at the moment.)
**The mos module doesn't even include these names, apart from monowood and biwood.
 
===Proposed style guide===
The following is a proposed guide for naming mosses, based on patterns gleamed from existing mosses. There are also exceptions to these rules.


# Names for single-period mosses with 5 or fewer notes are the most general names in the sense that they're not limited to an octave period and end with -ic or -al. These should be the only mosses that contain the anti- prefix, shortened to an-.  
#Names for single-period mosses with 5 or fewer notes are the most general names, not limited to an equivalence interval of an octave, and end with -ic or -al. These should be the only mosses that contain the anti- prefix, shortened to an-.  
## Monowood is an exception in that it does not end with -ic or -al.
##Monowood is an exception in that it does not end with -ic or -al.
## An extreme alternative to rule 1 is to say that all mosses named under rule 1 should end with -al, but this requires renaming more mosses (antetral, tetral, pental, anpental) for arguably little gain.
# Names for single-period mosses not of the form 1L ns end with -tonic, suggesting that these are octave-specific and reference a specific interval, or a notable pre-TAMNAMS or other temperament-agnostic name.
# Names for single-period mosses not of the form 1L ns end with -tonic, suggesting that these are octave-specific and reference a specific interval, a notable pre-TAMNAMS or other temperament-agnostic name, or indirectly reference a temperament (and instead bear the -oid prefix) if all other options are exhausted.
##Temperament-based names may be justified if it applies to a mos with a sufficiently narrow generator range, or if no other naming options are available. Such names should end with -oid.
## Mosh, semiquartal, zaltertic, balzano, and pine are exceptions to this rule as their names are too distinct or too well-established to justify change.
##Mosh, semiquartal, balzano, and pine are exceptions to this rule.
# With the exception of mosses named under rule 1, no mosses should be named in a way that they contain additional prefixes such as anti-, sub-, or super-, nor should such mosses share the same word stem unless the mosses in question have some relationship.
#Single-period mosses of the form 1L ns with 6 or more notes are named after minerals and gemstones.
## Semiquartal is an exception to the no-prefixes rule because event though it bears the semi- prefix, its mosprefix is chton-.
## This requires renaming existing mosses, namely antimachinoid, antipine, antisubneutralic, and antisinatonic.
## Sets of mosses that share a relationship with one another include the following: subaric (proposed rename to baric), jaric, and taric; monowood, biwood, triwood, tetrawood, pentawood.
# Multi-period mos names should bear the -ic suffix.
# Multi-period mos names should bear the -ic suffix.
# Names based on objects or personal names are exempt from the rules described above, as long as their naming is justified.
##All of the wood mosses are exceptions to this rule, as are lemon, lime, and tcherepnin.
## This includes names for mosses of the form 1L ns with 6 or more notes, as these are named after gemstones and minerals, following the spirit of 1L 6s being named onyx (see next section). These mosses have too broad a tuning range to even suggest a single temperament.
# With the exception of mosses named under rule 1, mosses should avoid having additional prefixes if possible, such as anti-, sub-, or super-, and mosses should avoid sharing the same word stem unless the mosses in question are related in some way.
## This includes names such as tcherepnin, pine, lemon, and lime.
##Sets of mosses that share a relationship with one another include the following: subaric, jaric, and taric; monowood, biwood, triwood, tetrawood, pentawood; antidiatonic and diatonic (in that they're sister mosses)


=== Changes to exiting names ===
===Changes to existing names===
This section describes changes to existing [[TAMNAMS]] names that I would make, given the proposal described in the previous section and the following reasons:
This section describes changes to existing [[TAMNAMS]] names that I would make, given the proposal described in the previous section and the following reasons:


* Some names are still based on a temperament (mainly the -oid names), so those are either replaced with a new name or at least altered so the references are more indirect.
*Some names are still based on a temperament (mainly the -oid names), so those are either replaced with a new name or at least altered so the references are more indirect.
* There were Discord users with whom I shared a similar sentiment regarding the names of certain scales, mainly the mosses with the anti- prefix and the scales antidiatonic and superdiatonic.

The choice of names are not perfect and some may have issues. Some name suggestions went through different versions. This section is meant to start a discussion on alternate names should a need come up for it. Some of these suggestions may be outdated as TAMNAMS names change, rendering such suggestions unnecessary; notes regarding such changes are in '''bold'''.

Names for these mosses are based on the base terms "pentoid" and "tetroid" and have appropriate prefixes added. Specifically:
* For diapentoid, the prefix dia- is chosen, as it refers to both diatonic and, indirectly, antidiatonic.
* For mechpentoid, the prefix mech- is chosen for the same reason as dia-.
* For smotetroid, the prefix smo- is chosen as it combines the prefixes of mosh- and smi-.

|Option 1: make 2L 5s more distinct from 5L 2s. This mirrors a few Discord users' sentiments regarding this scale in that it should not be treated as an "inversion" of 5L 2s but should be treated as something unique.
| rowspan="2" |From "[[pelog]]" and "[[armodue]]". The proposed names are to make both scales more distinct from diatonic. These names must be changed together if possible. The use of the term "superdiatonic" to refer to 7L 2s was misattributed to armodue theorists, as the term cannot be found anywhere on the armodue website.
|Connections to 5L 2s may be beneficial to musicians, and this connection already exists for mavila.
The use of the term "superdiatonic" is also used across the wiki in contexts that do not suggest the mos 7L 2s, mainly to describe a child mos of a mos. In TAMNAMS-related contexts, the term "chromatic" is used for this situation.
Hairtonic.
| rowspan="2" |The connection to diatonic may be beneficial to some musicians. Additionally, the mode names commonly used for both mosses are those from diatonic (lydian, ionian, etc) with the anti- and super- prefixes added. Despite misattribution, the name "superdiatonic" commonly refers to 7L 2s.
New names reference pelog tuning and armodue theory.
