The simplest and most straightforward way to refer to MOS scales is by using the format #L#s, directly specifying the number of large steps (#L) and the number of small steps (#s). This is also probably the most commonly-used format that does not reference the names of regular temperaments. For those who desire more "colorful" names, Graham Breed has proposed the following names.
