None was taken from a film, a show, a band, a book or a team, so the best-known numbered titles are left out on purpose, and no name leans on a card, dice or drink saying. The names are our own suggestions. The words for a group of nine, ten, eleven and twelve that the page gives (ennead, nonet, dectet, undecet and dozen) were read on 2026-10-03 in the English Wiktionary entries of those names, starting at https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ennead; Wiktionary text is under CC BY-SA 4.0. Each name of two or more words was searched on English Wikipedia the same day, and the .com and .org address of each name was asked for as well. A name we coined that turned out to be a title, a band, a company, an event or a real group was taken out; an everyday saying or a plain term was kept. Plain words are shared widely, so somebody somewhere may already use one of these names. Compared by script on 2026-10-03 with every other list on this site: no name is repeated. Nothing was checked against a trademark register. Licence: own work
