`  == Rewriting Definitions in Lede ==  The second definition previously given in the article, ``name-recipient``, was absurd, and was not supported by the reference given.  Everything, if there's a word for it, is a ``name-recipient``.  An eponym is a person whose name is given to some place or thing, or it is the name itself.  It is not the place or thing so named.  I have accordingly rewritten the lede to eliminate the absurdity.  The adjective, eponymous means, being or having to do with an eponym: i.e., the person or thing for whom something is named (e.g., ``the eponymous founder of Walt Disney Productions``). One dictionary (Collins) also allows it to mean, ``named for its creator or central character`` (e.g. ``R.E.M.'s eponymous album, 'R.E.M.'``); but Merriam-Webster doesn't. I have accordingly attributed that sense to ``recent usage``.    The rest of the article still needs a thorough rewriting.  |  `
