{{Mbox|text=This article is a work-in-progress, '''proposed rewrite''' of the following page: [[TAMNAMS Extension]] and [[User:Ganaram inukshuk/TAMNAMS Extension]]}}
:''This page assumes the reader is familiar with [[TAMNAMS]] mos names.''
:''This page assumes the reader is familiar with [[TAMNAMS]] mos names.''
'''ATAMNS''' (from '''''A'''dditional '''T'''emperament'''-A'''gnostic '''M'''oment-of-Symmetry Scale '''N'''ame'''s'''''), is a collection of temperament-agnostic names for mos scales that have more than 10 steps. These names are an extension to the mos pattern names provided by TAMNAMS and include former TAMNAMS names and names that various theorists have proposed. These names differ from TAMEX in that they are meant to be unique names.
This page describes additional temperament-agnostic mos names that fit the style of [[TAMNAMS]] but are either unofficial names (eg, names conjured up by other theorists), former names (not including abandoned names), or names given to mosses for the sake of completeness.


== Names for mosses with more than 10 steps ==
==Names for mosses with 2 to 5 steps ==
Names for mosses with 2-5 steps are given names primarily for completeness. These names are designed to be as general as possible so that they can be used for non-octave contexts, with the exception of the names ''monowood'' and ''biwood'', for which the mos must either be octave-equivalent or have a tempered-octave equivalence interval.
