nameable
Able to identify
Nameable describes something that can be given a name or identified by name.
The word often appears in contexts where identification matters: Every nameable star in the constellation has been catalogued.
Something nameable can be specified or singled out, as opposed to vague or ineffable things that resist being pinned down.
Also spelled namable.
