The name &lt;em&gt;Tenney height&lt;/em&gt; stems from the fact that &lt;a class="wiki_link" href="/James%20Tenney"&gt;James Tenney&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://www.plainsound.org/pdfs/JC&amp;amp;ToH.pdf" rel="nofollow"&gt;proposed it, using the name &amp;quot;harmonic distance&amp;quot;&lt;/a&gt; . The &lt;em&gt;Benedetti height&lt;/em&gt;, the product of the numerator and denominator, was first proposed as a consonance measure by the Renaissance scientist and mathematician &lt;a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://www.webcitation.org/6076Lm8r4" rel="nofollow"&gt;Giovanni Battista Benedetti&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
