Compare adnomination n. and annomination n.

1. Rhetoric. The conjunction of words which sound similar; wordplay based on similar-sounding words; an instance of this.

1574 R. Bristow Briefe Treat. Plaine Wayes f. 87 The Latine very aptly expresseth the sense, making superseminans to answer vnto Seminans, although the Greke haue not that agnomination.

1588 A. Fraunce Lawiers Logike i. xii. f. 50 As for the pretty and conceipted chaunge of the woord, argumentum ab arguendo, it seemeth also a Rhetoricall agnomination.

1602 B. Jonson Poetaster iii. i. sig. D3^v A kind of Paranomasy, or Agnomination .

1656 J. Smith Myst. Rhetorique Unvail'd 105 Agnomination is a pleasant sound of words, or a small change of names; or it is a present touch of the same letter, syllable, or word with a different meaning.

1682 B. Keach Τροποσχημαλογία ii. ii. 13 Agnomination, or Likeness of Words..is when by the change of one Letter or Word, the Signification thereof is also changed.

1761 W. Massey Remarks Milton's Paradise Lost 238 Adam called Eve Isha, Woman, because she was taken out of Ish, which is the Hebrew Name for Man. These Agnominations are very significant, and worthy of Explanation.

1890 PMLA 5 122 Wackernagel..shows that ne alone is sufficient in M. H. G. [= Middle High German], when by agnomination the same verb is used twice close together, first positively then negatively.

1962 G. K. Hunter John Lyly iv. 244 The highly patterned prose..is not there simply because Lyly was suffering from a bad dose of agnomination or isocolon.

1999 J. Fahnestock Rhetorical Figures in Sci. v. 166 The first two of the four transformations in this passage turn on puns, but the last two are ‘agnominations’, the strong resemblance between ‘praying’ and ‘playing’ and between ‘fasting’ and ‘feasting’ enhancing the ease with which frail humanity slides into sin.
