Nitrogen

Described as 140 & 1407 temperament in the 7-limit, named after the 7th element for being period-7. And if that wasn't good enough, it also reaches 7th harmonic 7 generators down.

Subgroup: 2.3.5.7

Comma list: 3955078125/3954653486, 140737488355328/140710042265625

Mapping: 7 10 17 20, 0 22 -15 -7

Optimal tuning (CTE): ~1157625/1048576 = 1\7, ~1029/1024 = 8.531

Vals: 140, 1407, 1547, ...

Dzelic

Named after the Slavic letter for 7, because it takes 7 generators to reach 3/2, and the period is 1/37th of the octave. Described as the 296 & 1665 temperament.

Berkelium

A remarkable high-limit subgroup temperament with equally remarkable full 31-limit branchings.

Point Zero Seven

A meantone version of sextilififths that's quite bad at JI. Named because the generator is 7\100, and since the name sounds like an alcohol percentage, it corresponds to the "drunken and imprecise feel" of the badness of JI of the scale.

Subgroup: 2.3.5.7

Comma list: 81/80, 121500/117649

Lamina

Leaves temperament in the 51L 1s 1|1 scale has a meantone fifth which is flat of 17edo fifth by a leaves' reduced generator. Lamina takes the said fifth and uses it as a generator. Name comes from the flat surface that makes up the texture of a leaf. Defined as 33 & 323 in the 17-limit, and with step size difference of around JND it can be treated as a barely noticeable well temperament for 33edo.

The fifth reaches 13/11 in 10 steps, just as generator of lamina does. In addition, 21/16 is reached in 8 steps, 7/5 is reached in 13 steps, 16/15 is reached in 21 steps.

Grand lamina

Grand lamina is defined as 257 & 2023, and it is a metatemperament for lamina, with both having the same relationships in the 33-note MOS.

Tritonopod

Period-35, 17 generators are equal to 7/5, 18 generators are equal to 10/7.

Possibly rank-3?
