Hip-eponymous

Cool People, or Hipsters, who belong to an Eponymous Society, where all members have the same name. Hip-eponymous is the next logical step to Googling your own name. You find and friend everyone with your name, and start a group, such as the "Your Name" Society.

I have my own Hip-eponymous group on FaceBook, everyone has the same name as me. ^_^

para-eponym

A regular eponym is something named after a person, such as nehru jacket, boycott, volt, bloomer, gerrymander and quisling. A para-eponym is something named after a variation on a person's name, and can be a noun, adjective or verb.

Two para-eponyms are Count Chocula (from Count Dracula) cereal and Cherry Garcia (from Jerry Garcia, a musician favorite of Ben and Jerry) ice cream.

epona

The name of the brown coated (white around certain areas) colt (when you first recieve her) in Zelda:Ocarnia of Time, by Nintendo. Link is given her by Maylon, from the Lon Lon Ranch. When Link recieves the ocarnia, he is able to call Epona with "Epona's Song." (Surprise.) He can use her to ride...around. Faster. She has a carrot meter at the top of the screen to measure how much energy she has left.

((Actually happened.))
"Epona's kinda fat, no?"
"WTF!" *Tosses book at Fox*
"YOU PLAY."
