Nomen à clef


In romance languages, nomen à clef or nomen à clé ([nomen‿a kle], French for "name with a key"), is a name describing a real person, behind a façade of fiction. "Key" in this context means a table one can use to swap out the names. It is the nomenclature complement of the roman à clef.
