As I was searching for authoritative definitions for the terms in my last post, I stumbled upon yet another new word...Onomatomania
I know a little knowledge is a dangerous thing and many medical/clinical librarians have fallen into the trap of self-diagnosis. Irrespective of that, I am convinced I have onomatomania.
Onomatomania
"Mental derangement with regard to words or names."
(1995, Dorland's Pocket Medical Dictionary, W.B. Saunders: Sydney)
