==== Names for mosses with more than 10 notes ====

The scope of TAMNAMS name is to give mosses with small note count a notable name. To keep the number of names controlled, only mosses with no more than 10 notes are named. As a result, the names of mosses with 11 and 12 notes were abandoned, notably the names kleistonic, suprasmitonic, m-chromatic, and p-chromatic.

~~=== Mosses with more than one name ===~~

Some mosses have more than one name, namely tetrawood/diminished (4L 4s), dicoid/zaltertic (7L3s), and superdiatonic/armotonic (7L 2s). Typically, this was due to to an alternate name being suggested to replace an older name, despite the older name being more popular. Either name can be used.

~~==== Superdiatonic and armotonic (7L 2s) ====~~

This mos has two names. The name "superdiatonic" has seen some precedent of use on the Xenwiki to refer to the mos 7L 2s despite the use of the name referring specifically to 7L 2s being misattributed to armodue theorists. Superdiatonic is also the first in a series of mos patterns (5+2k)L 2s, of which diatonic (5L 2s, k=0) is the first member. Like 5L 2s, 7L 2s is also a fifth-generated scale and has a structure similar to diatonic in some ways, but is larger. The name "armotonic" is an alternative name for situations where "superdiatonic" is used in a context that does not suggest the mos pattern 7L 2s.

~~==== Tetrawood and diminished (4L 4s) ====~~

Tetrawood is part of the pattern of wood mosses (nL ns) and is named accordingly. Diminished is in reference to the diminished scale in 12edo, whose pattern is formed by going up a whole step (W) followed by a half step (H) repeated four times (WHWHWHWH, or LsLsLsLs).
