Theonym
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Theonym, from classical Greek theos (god) and nym (name), is a term for a gods name.[1] The names of a society's gods may be useful in understanding the origin of their languages as well as their views of a particular deity. Theonyms have been particularly useful in understanding the connections of Indo-European languages.
