Latin > English (Lewis & Short)
nōmen: ĭnis (archaic form of
I gen. sing. NOMINVS, S. C. de Bacch. Corp. Inscr. Lat. 196, 8), n. for gnōmen, from root gno, whence gnosco, nosco, co-gnosco, a name, appellation (syn. vocabulum).
I Lit.: nomen est, quod unicuique personae datur, quo suo quaeque proprio et certo vocabulo appellatur, Cic. Inv. 1, 24, 134: imponere nova rebus nomina, id. Fin. 3, 1, 3: qui haec rebus nomina posuerunt, id. Tusc. 3, 5, 10: appellare aliquem nomine, id. de Or. 1, 56, 239: huic urbi nomen Epidamno inditum est, Plaut. Men. 2, 1, 37; cf. Liv. 7, 2, 6: Theophrastus divinitate loquendi nomen invenit, Cic. Or. 19, 62: lituus ab ejus litui, quo canitur, similitudine nomen invenit, id. Div. 1, 17, 30: ut is locus ex calamitate populi Romani nomen caperet, Caes. B. G. 1, 13 et saep.: ludi, Pythia de domitae serpentis nomine dicti, Ov. M. 1, 447: clari nominis vir, Vell. 2, 34, 4: nominis minoris vir, id. 2, 100, 5; cf. id. 2, 112, 2; 2, 103, 1: est mihi nomen, inditur mihi nomen, with nom.: cui saltationi Titius nomen est, Cic. Brut. 62, 225: eique morbo nomen est avaritia, id. Tusc. 4, 11, 24: canibus pigris ... Nomen erit pardus, tigris, leo, Juv. 8, 36.—With dat.: haec sunt aedes, hic habet: Lesbonico'st nomen, Plaut.

Gaja), Cic. Mur. 12, 27.—So, too, in the signif. of cognomen: Sex. Clodius, cui nomen est Phormio, Cic. Caecin. 10, 27; cf.: tamquam habeas tria nomina, i. e. as if you were a Roman, Juv. 5, 127.—
