Comma-prefix names' are a systematic naming system for just intervals developed by CompactStar. Many names in this system match existing terms such as 7/4 being a "subminor seventh" and 11/8 being an "ultrafourth". Unmodified interval names correspond to Pythagorean intervals while prefixes can be added to indicate raising/lowering by a comma. The prefixes for lower primes are added first, for example 36/35 is an "oversuperunison" rather than a "superoverunison".
List of prefixes
| Prime limit | Comma | Positive prefix | Negative prefix |

| 5 | 81/80 | over | under |
| 7 | 64/63 | super | sub |
| 11 | 33/32 | ultra | infra |
| 13 | 1053/1024 | hyper | hypo |
