Oeconym

An oeconym, also econym, or oikonym (from Greek: οἶκος, oîkos, 'house, dwelling' and ὄνυμα, ónuma, 'name') is a specific type of toponym that designates a proper name of a house or any other residential building, and in the broader sense, the term also refers to the proper name of any inhabited settlement, like village, town or city. Within the toponomastic classification, main types of oeconyms (econyms, oikonyms) are: astionyms (proper names of towns or cities, from Ancient Greek: ἄστῠ, hastŭ), and comonyms (proper names of villages, from Ancient Greek: κώμη, kōmē).
