[[TAMNAMS~~]] suggests the temperament-agnostic~~ name ~~'''onyx''' for this scale.~~ The name derives from ~~multiple~~ puns ~~and references~~:

{{TAMNAMS name}} The name derives from several naming puns/reasonings:

* The name sounds like its step counts of '''one''' large step and '''six''' small steps.

* Onyxes come in different colors and types, which is a metaphor for this scale's generator range being quite large and containing the generator ranges of other MOS scales, such as [[7L 1s]], [[8L 1s]], and [[9L 1s]].

* Building on the observation that it is the 7-note (heptatonic) MOS that is the ancestor of all xL 1s scales with x>6, the name "onyx" also sounds similar to "one x", as in 1 large step and x small steps.

* The name "onyx" is also supposed to be vaguely reminiscent of "anti-archaeotonic" as "chi" (the greek letter) is written like an "x" (this is related to why "christmas" is abbreviated sometimes as "X-mas") and the letters "o" and "n" and their sounds are also present in "archaeotonic", and "x" is vaguely reminiscent of negation and multiplication. There is also something like a "y" sound in "archaeotonic" in the "aeo" part.

There is one notable harmonic entropy minimum: [[porcupine]], in which the generator is ~~around 150¢ to 170¢~~, two generators make a [[6/5]] (315.6¢), and three make a [[4/3]] (~~498¢~~).
