== Woods ==
Trivial multi-MOS scales of n periods are named '''n-wood''' or spelled out resulting in: hexawood, septawood, octawood, nonawood and decawood.
== Daughter scales ==
The system introduces stems derived from the prefixes of select MOS scales under 10 notes. If the parent of a basic MOS scale is hard the name is ''(stem)pechromic'' (analogous to pychromatic). If the parent of a basic MOS scale is soft the name is ''(stem)mechromic'' (analogous to mechromatic).
== Granddaughter scales ==
Granddaughters are analogues of menharmonic, flenharmonic, pyenharmonic and shenharmonic.

== Great-granddaughter scales ==
Great-granddaughters derive names from the hardness of the great-grandparent scale e.g. minisoft becomes miso.

== (Grand) Daughter MOS naming system ==
Daughter MOS scale names are derived from the parent MOS's soft version as ''(prefix)mechromic'' (short for meantone-analogue chromatic) and the hard version as ''(prefix)pechromic'' ((super)pyth-analogue chromatic).
Grand daughter MOS scale names are derived from the grand parent MOS's supersoft, semisoft, semihard and superhard versions and denoted ''(prefix)fenharmic'' (flattone analogue enhramonic), ''(prefix)menharmic'' (meantone analogue), ''(prefix)penharmic'' (pythagorean analogue), ''(prefix)senharmic'' (sharp superpyth analogue).
