1589 G. Puttenham Arte Eng. Poesie iii. xvii. 151 Speaches, where ye take the name of the Author for the thing it selfe; or the thing conteining, for that which is contained, & in many other cases do as it were wrong name the person or the thing. So neuerthelesse as it may be vnderstood, it is by the figure metonymia, or misnamer.
1589 G. Puttenham Arte Eng. Poesie iii. xvii. 151 Not metonimia, but antonomasia, or the Surnamer, (not the misnamer, which might extend to any other thing aswell as to a person).
