'''Logonym''' is a [[polysemic]] term, and a [[neologism]] (coined from {{langx|el|λόγος}} / word, and {{langx|el|ὄνομα}} / name). The term has several meanings, spanning across different fields of study. It was primarily defined as a term that designates various types of titles, including titles of literary and other artistic works,{{sfn|Room|1996|p=57}} and also came to designate titles of business firms and their products, including their [[acronyms]].{{sfn|Wicklander|1978|p=218}}  The term also has a specific meaning in [[biological]] classification,{{sfn|Dubois|2000|p=33-98}} and some authors have used the term as an alternative designation for the [[proper names]] of [[languages]],{{sfn|Klamer|2010|p=3, 7, 13, 511, 537}} but such use could not replace previously established [[onomastic]] terms ([[linguonyms]], glossonyms, glottonyms),{{sfn|Picone|2015|p=268}} that are commonly used as designations for the onomastic class of language names.{{sfn|Goebl|1979|p=7–38}}{{sfn|Back|1988|p=5–9}}{{sfn|Good|Cysouw|2013|p=339-342}}{{sfn|Kikvidze|2013|p=194-198}}{{sfn|Peetermans|2016|p=}}
