“Appellation” (ap-uh-LAY-shun) – from the Latin for “to name” – is a name, title, or designation.

Example (as used by Anita Shreve in Fortune’s Rocks): “For as long as Olympia can remember, her mother has been referred to, within her hearing and without, as an invalid – an appellation that does not seem to distress her mother and indeed appears to be one she herself cultivates.”
