15-edo is a 7-limit tuning because of the amount of septimal intervals, but it does contain 11-limit intervals.
15-edo has been labeled a "Porcupine" temperament by Paul Erlich, which has stuck ever since. The name comes from a piece called the "Mizarian Porcupine Overture" by Herman Miller. It also falls into the catagory of kleisma tunings along with 53 and 19.
""In music, 15 equal temperament, called 15-TET, 15-EDO, or 15-ET, is the tempered scale derived by dividing the octave into 15 equal steps. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 2 1/15, or 80 cents. Because 15 factors into 3 times 5, it can be seen as being made up of three scales of 5 equal divisions of the octave. 15-ET matches the 11:8 and 16:11 ratios, and does not match the 7:5 or 10:7 tritone."
