== Temperament name examples ==

=== [[~~Amity family|~~Amity]] ===

=== [[Amity]] ===

Origin: Paul Erlich (2002)

Meaning: A restructuring of the words "acute minor third." The ideal generator for Amity is between a minor third and neutral third.

=== [[~~Augmented_family#~~Augmented|Augmented]] ===

=== [[Augmented (temperament)|Augmented]] ===

Origin: Paul Erlich and Carl Lumma (2002)

Line 72:

called 'augmented'. besides the reasons already given ... the period of the 'augmented' linear temperament is 1/3 octave (thus outlining an augmented triad)." —Paul Erlich</ref>

=== [[~~Porcupine family #Ammonite|~~Ammonite]] ===

=== [[Ammonite]] ===

Origin: Keenan Pepper (2011)

Line 100:

Meaning: Named after Easley Blackwood's 10-out-of-15 maximally even scale.

=== [[Breed ~~family~~|Breed]] ===

=== [[Breed (temperament)|Breed]] ===

Origin: Gene Ward Smith (2004)

Line 114:

Meaning: 3/2 is divided into 2 equal parts, hence "di-". Not sure why "-cot". "-Cot" has been suggested to originate from 'cotyledon,' the name for the embryo of a plant seed.

=== [[Diminished|Diminished and dimipent]] ===

=== [[Diminished (temperament)|Diminished and dimipent]] ===

Origin: Paul Erlich and Carl Lumma (2002)

Line 135:

=== [[Doublewide]] ===

Named after a type of mobile home.

~~=== [[Eir]] ===~~

~~[[User:VIxen|VIxen]] named it after a healer goddess or valkyrie from the Norse mythology, as it's an extension of freya with the [[2080/2079|ibnsinma]] that evokes associations with medicine.~~

=== [[Ennealimmal]] ===

Line 183:

Line 180:

=== [[Heinz]] ===

Named after the fact that 26\57 is a possible generator, and the words "57 varieties" are found on the bottle labels of a popular brand of ketchup called "Heinz", so the connection is based on the presence of the number 57. It does not seem to be related in any way to [[Heinz Bohlen]].

~~=== [[Breed_family#Heimlaug|Heimlaug]] ===~~

[[User:VIxen|VIxen]] named it after a völva (seeress) from the Gull-Þóris saga of Icelanders. It is an extension of freya with the [[1001/1000|fairytale comma]] and the [[936/935|ainma]], both adding to the mystical theme. The one of prophecy is bolstered by that this extension has benediction as a subtemperament.

=== [[Helmholtz]] ===

Line 284:

Line 278:

=== [[Quadritikleismic]] ===

Has a kleismic generator, so that (6/5)<sup>6</sup> = 3, and four periods per octave, therefore quadri-.

~~=== [[Rishi]] ===~~

~~When [[User:VIxen|VIxen]] was proposing it, [[Diaschismic_family #Sruti|sruti]] was its only named rank-2 subtemperament. Rishis (sages) are believed to have created shruti texts.~~
