appellations
What things are called
Appellations are names or titles, especially formal or official ones.
The term often appears in contexts where naming carries weight—wine regions have legally protected appellations of origin, and a person's appellation might be their professional title or honorific.
The château's high reputation comes from its prestigious appellation.
The singular appellation sounds more literary than simply "name."
