The name of an interval or a diatonic interval quality can be incorporated into the name of a mos. Such names include ''smitonic'', ''gramitonic'', ''semiquartal'', ''subneutralic'', and ''sinatonic'', from "sharp minor third", "grave minor third", "half-fourth", "between supraminor and neutral", and the interval [[sinaic]], respectively. | The name of an interval or a diatonic interval quality can be incorporated into the name of a mos.

Temperament-based names | Temperament-based names ending in the suffix ''-oid'' refer to [[Exotemperament|exotemperaments]] (low-accuracy temperametns) whose tuning ranges, when including extreme tunings, cover the entirety of their corresponding mosses. Therefore, edos with simple step ratios (2:1, 3:1, 3:2, etc) for that mos will correspond to valid tunings for that temperament (if not by [[patent val]], then with a small number of [[warts]]). Such names include ''machinoid'', ''dicoid'', and ''sephiroid'', in reference to [[machine]], [[dichotic]]/[[dicot]], and [[sephiroth]] temperaments, respectively; for information regarding these temperaments' tunings, see their specific reasonings under Reasoning for specific names. | ||
Temperament-based names | Temperament-based names that don't refer to exotemperaments should be used ''as a last resort'', and if used should be based on a notable temperament. Most of these names are abstractions of their original temperament names insofar that they refer to a temperament. Such names include ''pine'', ''hyrulic'', ''jaric'', ''ekic'' and ''lemon''; these reference the temperaments of [[porcupine]], [[triforce]], [[pajara]] (along with [[diaschismic]] and [[injera]]), [[echidna]], and [[lemba]], respectively, with ''jaric'' and ''lemon'' having additional reasonings of their own. | ||

Reasonings that do not fall under any of the general reasonings are likely to have a relationship-based reasoning, where groups of mosses – usually related by sisterhood or parenthood, but not always – are given names based on a common theme. | Reasonings that do not fall under any of the general reasonings are likely to have a relationship-based reasoning, where groups of mosses – usually related by sisterhood or parenthood, but not always – are given names based on a common theme. | ||
