description The main topics comprise (in non-technical language): Name theory; Place-names; Personal names; Names in literature; Names and sociology; Relationships of name studies to other subjects; and names of specialised categories. Linguistic Landscapes, for instance, deals with the relationships between overlapping languages in public use (such as on road signs), a matter of acute political conflict in some countries. Astronomical Names explains that owing to recent advances in technology, the demand for names in that field has sometimes exceeded supply; thus it had been intended to name all satellites of Jupiter after the lovers of that classical god, but when many more moons were discovered, astronomers had to resort to the names of his children.
