renown
renown: [14] To be renowned is etymologically to be ‘named again’, and hence to be ‘famous’. The word comes from Old French renon, a derivative of the verb renomer ‘make famous’. This was formed from the prefix re- ‘again’ and nomer ‘name’, a descendant of Latin nōmināre, from which English gets nominate.
=> nominate, noun
renown (n.)
c. 1300, from Anglo-French renoun, Old French renon "renown, fame, reputation," from renomer "make famous," from re- "repeatedly" (see re-) + nomer "to name," from Latin nominare "to name" (see nominate). The Middle English verb reknouen "make known, acknowledge" has been assimilated to the noun via renowned. In old German university slang, a reknowner (German renommist) was "a boaster, a swaggerer."
