An eponym is the name of a person or thing, whether real or fictitious,
after which a particular place, tribe, era, discovery, or other item is
named or thought to be named.[citation needed] One who is referred to as
eponymous is someone who gives his or her name to something, e.g., Julian,
the eponymous owner of the famous restaurant Julian's Castle. Another term
for eponym is namegiver.
In contemporary English, the term self-titled is often used to mean
eponymous in the case of a work with the same name as the person or persons
who created it.[citation needed] An etiological myth can be a "reverse
eponym" in the sense that a legendary character is invented in order to
explain a term. This is one example of folk etymology.
I'm the mother flippin' Rhymenocerous
My beats are fat and the birds are on my back
And I'm horny
(I'm horny! )
If you choose to proceed you will indeed concede
Cos I hit you with my flow
The Wild Rhino Stampede.
I'm not just wild,
I'm trained, domesticated
I was raised by a rapper and rhino that dated
And subsequently procreated
That's how it goes
Here's the Hiphopopotamus
