Where can I find a HUGE color chart that gives the most common names of thousands of color shades?

I need something like this for my work, I run a online retail fabric store and I need to be able to describe the fabrics with common color names. I can't seem to find anything thats of any real use to me; either the chart has tons of different hues but gives them numbers instead of names, or it gives bizarre color names that are only good for identifying particular shades of a particular companys paint. I need something that has the most common, most obvious names for lots of colors. Someone please HELP ME!!!!

Where can I find a HUGE color chart that gives the most common names of thousands of color shades?
There are no common color names - other than the obvious red, green, blue, etc. An artists chart would give additional names like Pthalo blue, quinacrodone magenta, cadmium yellow and the like - but those names won't help with a furniture buyer. The same situation exists with the names given to the various fabrics which are relatively meaningless and differ wildly from manufacturer to manufacturer.

if you havent found one yet... Report Abuse

Reply:I think you are looking for something that doesn't exist. The reason they use numbers is that there isn't any realistic way to name all the variations of color.


If you use a Pantone color chart you would be using an universal color reference that covers about everything. And you can tell anyone, anywhere to look up PMS 363 and they can find a Pantone color chart and find what shade of green that is. (PMS is Pantone Matching System).
Reply:Check with an art supply store. Maybe they have such a chart.

Where can I find out what the most common names and surnames of different countries are?

Hey Intrigued,





CTU gave you a good answer. Here are some other places to look. Finding surnames throughout the world is different, for exapmle in India, their naming system is different, and helps identify their genealogy better. I have no clue when it comes to asian surnames.

Where can I find out what the most common names and surnames of different countries are?
Try this site:

Reply:You have not given a particular family surname you are looking for, and your question is not about a specific given name, surname or country. You could start by going to local library and asking a librarian to direct you to a book, or books, on the subject. Librarians are there to answer questions and have been very helpful to me in my own searches.


My friends and i are writing stories and need a spin of on these common names?

My friends and i are writng stories and want to use the names of our close group of friends. I would like names similar to them, sound the same, or start witht the same letter. Teh names are: Kaitlyn, Alex, Bri, Meghan, Hannah, and Kassie

My friends and i are writing stories and need a spin of on these common names?
Now, I wasn't sure if Alex was a girl's name or a boy's, so I gave both. I figured that it was a girl's name, so there's a bit more choices for girls. I also have spacing between two different names for easier reading.








Kaitlyn = Kelly, Katherine, Caitlyn, Kaitlynne, Kiara, Krystal





Alex = (F) Arythra, Aven, Ashley, Arabella, Allison, Alyss, Alexxis, Alexia, Alexis


(M) Aaron, Adam, Alexavier, Alexandre

Hannah = Harmony, Helena, Heidi, Hessa (means star), Hazel, Hayden, Heather





Kassie = Cassie, Kassia, Kassandra, Kathleen, Kiana, Kylee/Kyle








I understand how important it is to have good names for characters, especially characters portraying your friends. So I tried to find them similar in name, but not too close. If not close, follow your criteria.

Why are systematic names preferred over common names?

Common names do not provide information about the chemical composition of the compound.


Common names are derived from the method used to obtain the compound.


Common names were assigned by the scientist who discovered the compound.


Common names are not very descriptive.

Why are systematic names preferred over common names?
The answer is "Common names do not provide information about the chemical composition of the compound."





Just because you know the common name for a substance like salt doesn't mean you know the chemicals that compose salt is: Sodium Chloride.

What are you thoughts when it comes to common names?

Hi,


wondering - if the baby name that you really really love is in the top 10 baby names in your area, what do you do? Do you still use the name or use another name??


Just a curiosity question! I've decided it doesn't really bother me

What are you thoughts when it comes to common names?
I personally would try to look for another name.





While there are some popular names I love quite a lot, I want my childrens' names to be distinctive. Part of the reason we give people names is so that we will be able to distinguish them from other people when talking about them -- if everyone had the same ten names, it wouldn't work so well!





Then again, as someone has already pointed out, everyone doesn't have the same ten names. Even when a name is in the top 10, usually only about 1% of babies born that year of that gender were given that name. That means, if you include both genders, only one out of every 200 babies born that year might have the same name as your child. While your little Emma or Sophia might have another one in her class sometimes, she probably won't have to share her name every year. Some years she'll be Emma D. or Sophia W. Some years, she'll be just Emma or Sophia.





My biggest problem with popular names is actually how they come to be perceived later on. Almost 30 years ago, when everyone was naming their children Jennifer, Jessica, and Amanda, those seemed like beautiful and creative names. Jennifer, after all, is the Welsh form of Guinevere, so it's both exotic and regal. Jessica is a name first used by Shakespeare. Amanda is also literary -- it was invented by a 17th century British playwright. When we hear those names now, though, what do we think of? I would bet that most of us don't think of them as literary, regal, exotic names. In fact, they strike us as rather plain and boring. Many women who were named something like Jennifer, Jessica, or Amanda wish their parents had come up with something a little more creative.





I'm afraid the same thing will happen to names like Emma, Sophia, and Olivia. Right now they seem fresh, literary, and beautiful. However, in 15 years or so, when all the little Emmas, Sophias, and Olivias are in high school, they'll seem like boring names, common names, or (heaven forbid) even "cheerleader names." I know that's not what we're aiming for when we name our children. That's why, no matter how much I love these names, I do try to steer clear of them.





That being said, there are sometimes more important considerations than popularity. If you are naming your child after a relative or friend, or if you simply can't find another name you would grow to love as much, then by all means, use the name you want. In that case, you may want to consider balancing it out with a more distinctive middle name.





Very interesting question!
Reply:It depends on a lot of factors.





1) How common are the most common names? What percent of the babies born that year actually have that name -- does the most common name cover 1% or less than .5%? I think it's a big consideration -- don't just look at rankings, look at actual numbers.





2) Does the name have a lot of different nicknames? For example, take the name Elizabeth. It's been in the top 20 girl names by popularity since 1880, but it has a million different nicknames: Elle, Ellie, Eliza, Liz, Liza, Lizzy, Beth, Bethy. Elizabeth is actually 9 different names combined into one, so an idea would be to divide the total number of baby girls named Elizabeth in a certain year by 9 and you'd get a better (though slightly imperfect) idea of how common each nickname is. This can be applied to any name: Emily can be Emmy or Milly; Isabella can be Izzy, Bella or Belle.





3) Does it bother you that the last initial might be attached to the child's first name? If it doesn't bother you, there's nothing wrong with it.





PS: There are a lot of benefits to common names. Common names are common for a reason -- they are well-liked by many people. I think you should choose whatever kind of name you think is best, be it common or unique! Good luck. =)
Reply:I prefer uncommon names so I would look for a different name, and possibly save the more common ones as middle names or just ignore the common names altogether, or possibly use variants of them. For example, I love Sophia but it is way too common as a first name. I know alot of Sophias too. I love Michael and Andrew for boys, but I'd use them as middle names since they are family names.





I was given a very common name (Amanda Lynn) and I've always hated it because I had to share my name with many other girls at school and not one other Amanda was nice to me either, and Lynn is a filler.





For that reason, I would rather give my children names that are different than give them a top 100 name even if I did like the name.
Reply:I personally wouldn't. Part of the reason we liked and chose the names that we did was because they weren't names that you heard on every other kid out there.





Even if I loved the name, hearing it all the time on everyone else's children would made me love it less and less.





EDIT: I was just thankful that our son's name didn't become trendy and popular before he was born. It's my mother's maiden name, and I always wanted to use for my son's name if I ever had a boy. But had it become really trendy in the years before his birth, I would have chosen a different first name for him. Thankfully, it was somewhere in the 400s when he was born, and it has pretty much stayed in the high 300s and low 400s for many years now. Only 616 other little boys throughout the entire country were given that same name the year he was born, compared to the over 30,000 little boys who were named Jacob.





My name has now become very popular for baby girls, but it wasn't at all when I was born. The spelling of my name wasn't even ranked in the Top 1000 in the year I was born, and even the longer version of my name was somewhere in the 500s or 600s. I guess I was just ahead of my time--LOL!
Reply:You got some great responses! I have a name that is not common, however it's similar to a really common name. At times I've been thankful that there were no other girls w/ my name in school. However, it's annoying having a name you have to distinctly pronounce for people so they don't mess it up. At times, I've thought 'gosh, if my name was Jennifer no one would mess it up ever!'





I've met more "Bella's" in the last 4 years than ever. Isabelle, Isabella, Anabella, Anabelle, belle, bella. I've got to admit that the beauty in the name is now lost on me.



Reply:Depends - I love the classic/traditional names that have been around forever (Michael, Matthew, Nathaniel, Isabella, Elizabeth, Catherine, etc.)





However, the trendy ones (Aiden, Jayden, Jada, Emma) just don't do it for me... and I think that I would actually be less likely to use it for a name just because it was trendy... Some I do like, but just don't think I could use (Emma for example)





Basically, if it has been in use steadily for at least the last 100 years - then I would consider it no matter what place it is on the list...





If it hasn't been used steadily - or has had a MAJOR upturn recently, I would probably avoid it...





HTH :-)
Reply:Me? No. But then I grew up with a Top Ten name. (Actually, the #2 name for girls born in my year.) It crazed me.





But I don't mind so much when other people choose to use them. Most names become popular because they are great choices - what's not to love about Josh, Ava or Emma? And it's also true that the percentage of kids receiving a Top Ten moniker has dropped with each generation - meaning that while there might be two Avas in your daughter's kindergarten, it's unlikely there will be five Jennifers - as there was back in *my* day.
Reply:I would still use it. I actually had this very same predicament. In 2004 and 2005, around the time I was pregnant, the name Madison was VERY (and still is) popular. That didn't stop me. I love that name. Always thought it sounded very feminine. I did spice it up a little by spelling it Madisyn tho. (I don't pronounce it Mad-i-sun, but rather Mad-i-sin. Subtle difference, but one none the less.) :)
Reply:I think you can definitely still use a name in the top ten! If you are worried about it not being unique you could tweek the spelling just a little like instead of Jacob, you could spell Jakob...or something. Not the greatest example, but if you love a name don't let anyone talk you out of it! I say go for it. CONGRATS!
Reply:I don't mind if it is heard of as long as it is not over used. I also never wanted my kids to have someone in their class with the same name. I always had to use my last initial in school and found it annoying, never wanted my kids to have to do that.
Reply:I would probably use it as a middle name. I know I wouldn't want to be one of ten Katies or whatever living on the same road plus another five in the classroom or work. So naturally I wouldn't want to do that to my son or daughter.
Reply:if you really love it, use it anyway. Your kid is going to be stuck with it, and you're going to be stuck having to call your kid by it... it better be something you love. who cares if other people have it or not.
Reply:I'd still use it. If I really like a name, just cause it's popular doesn't mean I'm not going to use it and settle for another name that I don't love as much.
Reply:Usually it doesn't matter because something bigger than a list is persuading you to use that name. I would still use the name. It's just right.
Reply:I would definitely would.
Reply:If you like the name then use it, but I would think of it as very generic and boring.
Reply:Use it!
Reply:it will be lame to me

How do scientists create common names?

Do they base it off a language or name it after the scientist who discovered it, etc?

How do scientists create common names?
Very Carefully


What are three reasons why scientists should not use common names for classification?

Reasons:





Using Latin means the name use will be universal (otherwise you'd have to translate the common name into many different languages).


Different countries (and different regions within countries) have different common names for the same organism (and the same common name for different organisms).


Since the scientific name (or "binomial nomenclature") uses the genus and species, it allows a simple description of the organism's evolutionary classification and likely appearance. For example, if you know that Rattus rattus is the brown rat, you can easily deduce that Rattus norweigicus is also a species of rat, even if you've never seen it.


The full scientific name can include not just the genus and species, but also the kingdom, phylum, class, etc. - giving a more detailed description of the organism.

What are three reasons why scientists should not use common names for classification?
Many use a common base language such as Latin.
Reply:I know one reason is that scientific names are recognized internationally.


I know these are common names blablabla but what set do u prefer?

1. Brooklyn and Scott


2. Jessica and Mark


3.Carly and Lee


4.Chloe and Shaun


5. Paige and Danny


6. Madeleine and Scott





what names do u prefer?

I know these are common names blablabla but what set do u prefer?
I like Madeleine and Scott best from that list. I think they sound good together and they are both cute names! My second pick would be Paige %26amp; Danny (as long as Danny is short for Daniel... I don't like Danny as a full name). I also love the name Carly, but I'm not a fan of Lee as a first name. So maybe if you put Carly with a different boy name, then I'd like it better. :o)





Hope that helps! Good luck!!
Reply:Chloe and Shawn (Spelled this way).





Brooklynn is masculine. Don't care for Scott, Jessica, or Mark. Carly is too informal for a first name, Lee as well. Paige is masculine. Danny is too nicknamish.

What are some unique not common names for a female kitten?
enola has alwasy been my favorite name, but I have never had a chance to name anything that, it means solitary. Helena, Olga, Ethel, I have always loved "old" lady names





There is a sweet name generator, that choses 4 names from a source of 100 or so different areas, such as norway, indian, native american, folklore...And gives you the meaning behind it.. Theres bound to be something that you have never seen before that you enjoy.





Few examples?


Fallon (Leader, Irish)


Taina, (Finnish) Ania (always, Finnish)


Marilou


Flora


Zoja (Polish)


Safira (like a sapphire, Esperanto)


Odila





Not to pull any racist comments, but I think an african origin name would be sweet. Anyhow, included the link, have fun.

Depending on what types of plants you wish to identify (grasses, sedges, etc.) identification can be quite difficult as many different species look quite similar and have ranges that over lap. Just run a search with you state, county name, and agriculture extension office to get their contact information and then just shoot them a call or email and they can help you in no time.

In order which are the 4 brightest stars in the sky? and what have been their more common names?

also, how do they compare to each other in brightness?





how does this change over the year? by much?





and in which direction are they in comparison?





are any of them in the constellations of the 12 zodiac signs?





in which direction are they for example, they say Polaris is directly exactly? North?





how about the others?





thanks for your asnwers!

In order which are the 4 brightest stars in the sky? and what have been their more common names?
After the Sun (which is always in a zodiac constellation!) the brightest stars are in order:





Sirius (Alpha in Canis Major)


Canopus (Alpha in Carina)


Arcturus (Alpha in Bootes)


Alpha Centauri aka Rigil Kent (in Centaurus)





none of these are in zodiac constellations.





The brightest star in a zodiac constellation is Aldebaran (Alpha in Taurus) ranking as the 13th brightest star in the night sky.


Spica (Alpha in Virgo) is number 15.


Antares (Alpha in Scorpius) is 16th.


Pollux (Beta in Gemini) is 17th.


Regulus (Alpha in Leo) is 22nd.





Because Earth's axis of rotation points almost directly at Polaris (within less than a degree of true North), Polaris appears fixed in the sky. Its azimuth is within a degree of true North (better than your magnetic compass). Polaris's altitude above your horizon will be (within a degree) the same as your latitude north of the equator. If you were at the North pole Polaris would be directly overhead (90 degrees above the horizon, same as the latitude).





Polaris will be closest to true North in 2100.
Reply:The sun is the brightest star by far in our sky.


Sirius is a poor second


Canopus is third BUT can't be seen in the norther hemisphere.


Arcturis is fourth





The sun is by definition in the zodiac, because they are the constellations that the sun moves thru during a solar year. But none of the four brightest stars are stars of the thirteen sun-signs of the zodiac. There are thirteen now because of the Earth's wobble, the sun goes thru Ophiucus. (SIC?)





Polaris is about .7 degree from exact north and is getting farther away as Earth wobbles. It was closest in 1990. By the way, "Search first" should have searched before answering this part wrong.
Reply:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bri...





The Sun is not in a constellation since it appears to move over the course of a year.





Sirius is in Canis Major





Canopus is in Carina





Arcturus is in Bootes. It is the only star here with any significant variability but not enough to move it up or down the rankings at all.


What are the common names for each of the following?

i need common name and phylum name for-





common molds


sac fungi


club fungi


imperfect fungi





this is a project due tomorrow. i cant find these names and i don't even know what a phylum name or common name is! so please help me!

What are the common names for each of the following?
Inclassiication "phylum" is used for animals and "division" is used for fungi and plants. The names in brackets below are the divisions which you need and not phylum!











Common molds (Zygomycota)


Sac fungi (Ascomycota) are so-named because many species in this group reproduce sexually by forming a spore-filled structure called an ascus, which means literally "a sac." For example, yeasts are a major group of sac fungi.Some species of sac fungi appear as blue-green molds on fruits, vegetables, and cheeses





Sac Fungi (Ascomycota) are so-named because many species in this group reproduce sexually by forming a spore-filled structure called an ascus, which means literally "a sac."





Club fungi (Basidiomycota) species reproduce sexually by forming spores on top of club-shaped structures called basidia. The club fungi are believed to be closely related to the sac fungi. This large group includes species that are known as mushrooms, toadstools.





Imperfect fungi (Deuteromycota)


Species in this group produce plant and animal diseases. Athlete's foot and ringworm in humans are caused by imperfect fungi.


Some species in this group appear as blue-green molds on fruits, vegetables, and cheeses. Several other species are important for the making of cheeses such as blue cheese, Roquefort, and Camembert. Certainly the best known product obtained from this group of fungi is penicillin, the first widely used antibiotic. Penicillin was first discovered in the mold Penicillium notatum.

How to know all the common names and structures of the organic compounds?

i have been noticing that many times we need write the IU PAC names of the structures whose common names are given eg. write the IU PAC name of o-anisidine. common names of compounds are also used in conversion questions. can u please tell me where do i find a list of such common names and there structures. its just few more days for my 12th boards.

How to know all the common names and structures of the organic compounds?
All the names of the organic compounds by common names are here





http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_org...





you should study as much as you can about IUPAC nomenclature





Then Learn the structures of the Compounds you have the common name for.





Then you can derive the IUPAC name from that. They are very long though for many compounds like the vitamins we eat so its very hard to learn the IUPAC





I think wikipedia is the best for these kinds of things
Reply:Many websites exist. I would suggest this one: http://webbook.nist.gov/chemistry/


Why are the common names more famous than IUPAC names?

the IUPAC names make more sense to me, like ethyne does make sense because its 2 carbons with a triple covalent bond, but why do most people call it acetelene instead of ethyne. Acetelene doesnt make any sense

Why are the common names more famous than IUPAC names?
In some cases the common names were created before the IUPAC created the nomenclature system. Also some of the IUPAC names can get ridiculously long especially for some of the organic compounds with many functional groups so therefore a common name was created for them.





PS... its acetylene

{I don't deserve best answer]
Reply:Maggie, I have never heard that term for it before but after checking out several sites, I would agree that it is a left handed Swastika in an upright position. It has been commonly used as a sigil of protection and banishment of disruptive powers and entities. Reversed, (as in the Nazi symbol) but still upright, it was a symbol of empowerment and added strength to that upon which it was placed. Turned 45 degrees, it became the symbol of the most despicable period and administration of the German Government to ever exist. For that reason, MOST Witches and mages will NOT use it, as it is associated with the German Third Reich. Very sad indeed that a thoroughly morally bankrupt bunch of people has changed what USED to be considered a symbol for GOOD into something perceived as being totally evil. Thank you SO very much, Adolf.





Oops, I failed to answer the question. Other terms for it are the solar cross of protection/banishment, swastika, and harvest cross (due to it's resemblance to the bent stalks of grain after harvesting).





Brightest Blessings,


Raji the Green Witch
Reply:Swastika


Cross


It originated as a symbol of ancient man in Africa. The diminutive people we classify under the term Pygmy.

Why do parents name their children common names?

First of all, the names aren't handsome/pretty. And second of all, everyone has to call them "Ryan C." or "James B." in elementary school! It's inconvenient, mean, and just plain lazy!

Why do parents name their children common names?
I agree that people could be a little bit more creative with the names they choose for their children, but like the previous girl stated...it's probably a family name. I named my daughter Sophia Raven. I liked the middle name b/c of Edgar Allan Poe and Sophia is just a gorgeous name, but I wouldn't have named her Starla, just to be different.
Reply:You can pronounce it.


You can spell it.


It is classic and charming.


It is better than Apple.

Reply:maybe it was a family name...and who cares if you don't like it...I personally LOVE the name Ryan!
Reply:Well I think some parents just don't want their children to be teased if they give them an odd name, plus perhaps some of those are family names, not their fault it is common.
Reply:My children are Joshua and Emily the 3rd and 1st most popular names. My husband and I did this mainly because we both have unusual names and having grown up with that stigma, we decided to go with common ones. It is not lack of creativity (we had quite a few unusual names picked out before we had kids!) but not wanting them to be teased and mispronounced their entire lives.
Reply:Why do parents name their children uncommon names?


First of all, the names aren't handsome/pretty. And second of all, everyone has to figure out how to pronounce their name. It's inconvenient, mean and just plain lazy!
Reply:usually, it's a name that someone in the family already has or it's a name from the parents past or whatever. My brother named his son alexander because he loves alexander the great. I like AtG too but I recognize the name is rather run-of-the-mill. I think when you have a child, you don't really think of the fact that there are tons of other people out there having a child too.
Reply:For the same reason some parents name their children outrageous names that no one can pronounce or spell. To each his own. Name your kids what you want and let me name my kids what I want.
Reply:well first of all we want to. We dont want to name our children Shaniqua or Shanana okay those names are just retarded
Reply:My parents gave me an uncommon name...and I HATED it. Kids were always making fun of my name in elementary school and junior high. Not to mention everyone always had to ask how to spell/pronounce my name and I STILL have relatives who can't spell my name right! I would have killed to be named Sarah or Jennifer.





I would never wish that on my children. We have an Ian, a Shaun, an Audrey and a Bridget. And they have never complained about their names.
Reply:Each of my biological children were named after someone very important in my life that is no longer with me.

Why is it that everyone on baby names is giving their kids all these common names ?

I can see exactly the same names on baby names at least 5 questions in a row, brayden Jayden Cayden Aiden as well as all the other repetative names/ and the "unique spellings of the same names? Doesn't it get boring reading all these questions and suggesting the same old names?

Well those are the popular names right now - 100 years ago I suppose it would have been Mary, John and William that every second baby was called. Yes I'm heartily bored with them!





Middle names like Rose, Lily, Grace etc are called "filler" names because they go well with almost any first name - especially long elaborate names like Arabella or Victoria. They are so popular because they work! Nearly everyone says they despise them, yet they sound so nice with everything it's hard to get away from them.

Is there a website that lists common names of different insect species?

There's supposed to be all these insect species, but Wikipedia only lists a couple per insect type. Is there a good web site that lists a bunch of them?

Is there a website that lists common names of different insect species?
A lot of insect species don't have a common name at all. Entomologists usually prefer the more precise scientific names, and no one else really cares.





I don't know of any sites that list all of the common names for every species that has one. Even though only a small minority of species have a common name, those that do still make up a HUGE number. Usually, most sites will have a specific focus on different types of insects: such as crop pest, or forest pests, or butterflies of a certain region, or large and interesting bugs found in a specific park, or something along those lines.





Is there any particular group of insects you're interested in?
Reply:I'm not sure of any that will exactly suit your needs but I found this really cool site several months ago where you can send a picture of a bug and the team will identify it for you. It might not give you the answers you are looking for but it is a lot of fun!

Are there any more common names for the chloroform liquid glue?

There is a kind of liquid glue call chloroform. It is colourless and very effective to glue plastic materials with just a drip or two.





But many of the local shop tenders here, they don't know what is chloroform. I know this should be a common thing but is there a more common or widely used term or name for such liquid?





Thanks.

What are the scentific terms and the common names used to describe a solar system in which there are 2 suns.?

Are there solar systems which are composed of two stars, or 2 "suns" instead of one? What are the terms, scientific or common, used to describe such systems? And is it possible for such systems to have planets ? Could those planets be revolving around both suns, and does such case, if it is possible, have a scientific term to describe it?

What are the scentific terms and the common names used to describe a solar system in which there are 2 suns.?
The term used for solar sytem with two suns is "Binary Solar System". The average solar system is binary (has two suns) and has a dwarf that orbits back and forth or around the two suns. Our solar system is average in both regards.





A dwarf is a label we've given to a celestial object that is a cross between a star and a planet. Our solar systems dwarf is sometimes referred to as Planet X. Its orbit around the two suns takes approximately 3600-3700 years to complete one cycle.





An even more basic question concerns whether or not planets could actually form in such systems. Our knowledge of how the planets formed in our solar system is far from complete, however we know that they formed through the gradual accumulation of smaller objects colliding with each other over periods of millions of years. A nearby massive object can disrupt this process; indeed, the asteroid belt in our solar system is widely thought to be a planet that was unable to form as a result of Jupiter's gravity. We don't have enough knowledge of this process to determine just how much the presence of a companion star can disrupt the formation of planets over an entire system; the best we can do right now is try to see if we can find any planets that might exist within such systems, and work from that point.





Among the more than 100 planets outside the solar system that have now been identified, a handful are indeed within double-star systems. The first-known such planet was independently discovered by two teams of astronomers (Geoff Marcy and Paul Butler in California; Bill Cochran and Artie Hatzes in Texas) and announced in 1996. It orbits around one of the components of 16 Cygni, a system comprising two stars each of which is almost identical to our sun, and now visible low in our northeastern sky during the pre-dawn hours. The two stars of the 16 Cygni system are so far apart, however -- a thousand times the distance between the Earth and the sun, with an orbital period of perhaps thirty thousand years -- that from a gravitational perspective they can be treated as single stars. Until recently, similar statements could be made about the handful of other planets that have been found in double-star systems.





In 2002, however, the Texas team announced their discovery of a planet orbiting around Gamma Cephei, a moderately bright star located near Polaris and currently visible in our northwestern sky during the evening hours. The Gamma Cephei system comprises a primary star that is somewhat larger than our sun, together with a smaller companion star that's about half the sun's size orbiting the primary at the approximate distance of the planet Uranus in our system. The planet appears to be about twice the size of Jupiter, and orbits the primary star every 2 1/2 years in an orbit that corresponds to that of the asteroid belt in our solar system.





The existence of this planet in the Gamma Cephei system -- which is not dramatically different in terms of gravitational influences from what one would encounter in the Alpha Centauri system -- suggests that planets can indeed form, and exist in stable orbits, within double-star systems. As our techniques improve over the coming years hopefully other planets in such systems can be detected, which will aid us in understanding the process of planet formation as well as give stronger indications of the number of planets in the galaxy.
Reply:The term I've heard for these systems are binary star systems...





I think they can have planets and I believe they orbit both stars collectively.

What are the advantages of using scientific names rather than common names?

Thanks for answering. I really need your answers.

What are the advantages of using scientific names rather than common names?
There is only one creature for any scientific name. There are probably dozens of birds called "sparrows" and dozens of fish called "minnows."





Scientific name also helps to describe relationships between creatures. If you have Felis domesticus (housecat) and "Felis leo" (lion), you can instantly look at the scientific names, without ever having seen a picture or description of either, and know that they are related to one another.
Reply:Being specific
Reply:I don't know really. I mean if you are walking down the street with some one who knows everything in the world about spiders, say, and you see one and go 'EEk a spider, that guy will probably say something like, 'Don't worry, it is just an arachnoboguso or something. Beats the hell out of me why they don't just call it a spider.
Reply:Scientific names may be fairly descriptive but in Latin. Scientists around the world are familiar with Latin, the Universal language. A common name in English likely would mean little to a scientist who speaks only German or French (but is familiar with Latin).
Reply:Scientific names are very useful as they allow scientists (and everyone else) to group animals together that possess similar features. The reason we cannot simply rely on common names is that the same name may be different depending on where you live, and will definitely be different with different languages. By using the same binomial name in latin we can ensure that all scientists no matter where they come from will be talking about the same organism.
Reply:just mention one scientific name , all people at any places know what it refer to. common name does not mention the name of species and it might be confusing. the domestic dog for instance belong belongs to which species in US and Russia.?
Reply:Lots of good answers above.





I would just add that Latin is considered a "dead" language. That is, it is not being currently used in any society as the main language. Thus, the meanings of the words, prefixes, suffixes aren't changing. Thus, the scientific names will always have the same meaning and won't be blurred by modern interpretation.





Can you imagine using an US English word like "hot" or "cool" or "chill" to name an animal? It would have different meanings for different people.

Why do people choose the most common names for their babies?

Do you realize that picking names from the top 10 is going to make school really difficult when in every single one of their classes, they have to be referred to as Emily C. or Emily J. because there are so many freggin' Emilys in the school? How come people aren't more creative with their baby's names?

Why do people choose the most common names for their babies?
I myself tend to lean towards the more unique names, ones that you don't hear that often. Some of the very common top names are very nice, but like you said they are very popular and everyone and their 5 friends have the same names. My name is Ashley and I always had 3 or more other Ashleys in ever single class all throughout school. It was a pain in the butt! But the truth is some people don't really like the more exotic and creative names. They prefer something traditional and most of the traditional names are the common ones. It's really up to a persons personal taste and opinion.
Reply:I believe there is no winning in the naming game. You are either harassed for being too common or too "out there".





I named my daughter Zalia Grace...Zalia is so uncommon but it is a family name for me. Her father chose Grace because he thought it was beautiful and feminine. And Grace is common in case she decides for herself that Zalia is too wild.





I get so many negative comments for picking Zalia.They say it is too difficult and no one will ever be able to pronounce it and she will never be able to spell it. But at the same time every one accuses us of picking a "filler name" and not putting any thought into it for picking Grace.





Like I said, you just cant win.
Reply:my name is very common. and i actually like, for the most part, everyone spells it right. and NOBODY pronounces it wrong. i have gone by Christina T when i was in school, but i didnt ever bother me. eventually, once you get into jr high and highschool, your gonna have to wright your last name on everything anyway, because it's more professional. i hated when i would have a new friend, and i would spell or pronounce thier name wrong. if your going to be origanal, at least make it an easy name. not something you made up, that should be a pets name.
Reply:I totally agree. I named my daughter Taryn because I like different names and most people think that's such a crazy, unusual name BUT there are at least two OTHER Taryn/Terin/Tarren's in her Kindergarten class and that doesn't count the 3 other elementaries in town who may have Taryn's in their Kindergarten also. I'm from a small town too...strange.
Reply:well, i kno my daughters middle name is like 2nd, hich wasnt planned but it happened. use to not be so popular you know.





but her first name is very creative without being weird or having her resumes trashed. i think if u go with a creative first name the middle name should be "normal" not so much popular but pronouncable and presentable at least and vice versa.





anyway, i kno my daughter is goin to be the only one with her name in class, but she'll be in there with fie jaydens (no matter how they are spelled...still said the same way) 3 jailyns, 2 caelans and 4 cadens and who knows which is a boy or a girl!!! i dread valentines day kindergarten and shes not even 2 yet!!!





i do wish people would choose names other than emily and jacob...and stop spellin them differently weird
Reply:Not that long ago, the top 10 names were Mary, Mark, Michael, John, Stephen, Thomas, Ann, Elizabeth and a few others. They were the top 10 names for CENTURIES! I don't think this is an issue you need to be too concerned about. People figure it out.





Names can become trendy very fast and then die out just as fast. Heather is a good example. Justin has longer staying power. Ava is going through the huge trend right now while it was pretty much an unknown 5 years ago. People like the names that they like and that's just the way it is.
Reply:all i hear on here about baby names is that they are too common or they are too uncommon...a woman carries a child for nine months and then raises that child until it is grown (and often beyond) so they earn every right to name their child emily, john smith, or something i can't pronounce.





people can offer up their opinions all day long but ultimately it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks.
Reply:people are afraid of being too "indie" or "weird"


classic names supposedly mean you are a good parent. creative names supposedly = weird crazy parents.


My name is Sophia, I was named when Sophia wasn't that popular, but it is now, so maybe that's the case with the Emily's
Reply:Name fads - people hear a name and all of a sudden everyone chooses it.





In the UK the name 'Jack' has been the number one boy name for 8 years now. I couldn't believe it when my friend told me she was calling her new son Jack!





I dislike a lot of these made up 'original' names but made sure that when I chose names for my children they did not appear in the top 100.
Reply:I don't worry about stuff like that. I named my kids whatever I wanted to and that was that. I home school, so they definately won't have anyone else in their class with the same name.
Reply:No name is going to be completely original. And picking a name not in the top 10 or top 100 does not mean there will not be another child with that name in their class. My daughters name is River, born last October. Guess what a friend of an acquaintance just named her daughter born 3 weeks ago? River. see??
Reply:i don't think people should make up horrible names but it is hard when you call out (name) and 20 kids turn around. But it is the parents decision and if they like it then hey not much we can say.
Reply:I agree completely. I prefer unique names so whenever somebody refers to them by their first name, they know who they're talking about straight away.
Reply:Because they think that if they have the same name as everyone else they wont get teased, but that just isn't true. Kids will find something to tease if they want to.
Reply:You're right, we should all start making names up: Makyisahmalynn. That'll make life much easier than poor Emily who has to share her name with a fellow class mate.
Reply:because people have no imagination. (sigh)





on the other hand, my mother almost named me Khaterina.


thank goodness my dad talked her out of it.
Reply:tell me bout it





ah lyk tuh maq up ma kids namz





z on erf wud zuh wnt uh comun kid fer
Reply:Because those are the names that they like.

What are the advantages of naming organisms with scientific names as compared to common names?

It eliminates confusion when scientists communicate about organisms, or when people refer to organisms by local or regional names.


Latin names will not change meaning over time.


The names in Latin are descriptive of traits or range, so translating the name gives some indication of what the organism is like.


Each organism is delineated with a genus species that separates it from all other organisms, and yet shows relationships to its closest relatives.

What are the advantages of naming organisms with scientific names as compared to common names?
since latin is a dead language it'll never change..





for example:


rex means king, has more or less always meant king, and will always mean king.. as opposed to words such as gay, cool, corn, and ruler all either have multiple meanings and/or have changed meaning over time





also it eliminated language barriers





calling something a "six stripe wrasse" when it may very well be called six barred, six lined, etc wrasse it's simply refered to as Pseudochilineus hexitaenia (the lined wrasse of six.. as a rough translation)





or with common names such as the raccon butterfly.. it could be called a raccoon in the US (where there are raccoons) and be a bandit butterfly in australia
Reply:It gives them a structured naming system that can be easily encoded/decoded based on their meanings and word parts.
