==== Onyx (1L 6s) ====

"1Ln-ic's" and "nL1-ic's (like, the -ic suffix applied to MOSS names, collectivised for 1Lns and nL1s) sounds like "one-el-en-ics" or "en-el-one-ics" which abbreviated sort of sounds like "one-ics" => "onyx". Then "onyx" sounds sort of like "one-six". Furthermore the onyx mineral comes in many colours and types, which seems fitting given this is the parent scale for a wide variety of MOSSes; specifically of interest being 7L 1s (pine), 8L 1s (subneutralic) and 9L 1s (sinatonic). Finally, the name "onyx" is also supposed to be vaguely reminiscent of "anti-archaeotonic" as "chi" (the greek letter) is written like an "x" (this is related to why "christmas" is abbreviated sometimes as "X-mas") and other than that, the letters "o" and "n" and their sounds are also present in "archaeotonic", and "x" is vaguely reminiscent of negation and multiplication. There is also something like a "y" sound in "archaeotonic" in the "aeo" part (depending partially on your pronounciation).

==== Jaric (2L 8s) ====

=== On the term ''diatonic'' ===

This name alludes to a few highly notable and generally inaccurate (with the exception of diaschismic) temperaments that exist in the tuning range of this MOSS. Specifically, notice how the letters and sound of "jaric" has (or is intended to have) a lot of overlap with [[pajara]], [[diaschismic]] and [[injera]] (listed in order of increasingly sharp fourths; note that diatonic fourths and jarfourths are equated in jaric, a notable property).

==== Taric (8L 2s) ====

Taric was named based on it being the only octave-tuned TAMNAMS pattern with a [[#Simple step ratios|basic]] tuning of [[18edo]] (because [[5L 6s]] has more than 10 notes so is out of the scope of TAMNAMS, although not necessarily out of the scope of extensions) and it was also named based on rhyming with jaric (as they share the parent mos [[2L 6s]]).

==== On the term ''diatonic'' ====

In TAMNAMS, ''diatonic'' exclusively refers to 5L 2s. Other diatonic-based scales (specifically with 3 step sizes or more), such as [[Zarlino]], [[blackdye]] and [[diasem]], are called ''[[Detempering|detempered]]'' (if the philosophy is [[RTT]]-based) or ''deregularized/detuned'' (RTT-agnostic) ''diatonic scales''. The adjectives ''diatonic-like'' or ''diatonic-based'' may also be used to refer to diatonic-based scales, depending on what's contextually the most appropriate.
