==Name==

The Lahob languages have a few competing names, all ultimately derived from Lahob proper:

* ''Lahob'', ''Lahou'', or ''Lahobic'' all derive from the ethnonym ''Łaȟoḇ'' [ɬaˈχɔβ] in ~~...~~, through [[Nordulaki]] ''Lahou'' [laˈhɔʊ̯]; the ultimate origin is Proto-Lahob *ɬakʰober, which is the common self-designation for many Lahob peoples (e.g. Łohof, Łogawe, Łokow, Tɬow).

* ''Lahob'', ''Lahou'', or ''Lahobic'' all derive from the ethnonym ''Łaȟoḇ'' [ɬaˈχɔβ] in Łaȟobarir, through [[Nordulaki]] ''Lahou'' [laˈhɔʊ̯]; the ultimate origin is Proto-Lahob *ɬakʰober, which is the common self-designation for many Lahob peoples (e.g. Łohof, Łogawe, Łokow, Tɬow).

* ''Neshlenkentian'' derives from Łogawe ''nɛ łenkɛnt'', meaning either "our family" or "we are a family"; ''łenkɛnt'' is ultimately connected to Proto-Lahob *lenkaynət, the root for "family" in many non-Chlouvānem Lahob languages.

* ''Lahob-Imuniguronian'' is an outdated term which was common when the relationship between the Core Lahob languages and Chlouvānem hadn't been proved yet; as acceptance of the theory grew, the term Lahob-Imuniguronian was replaced by the simpler Lahob, that had been used for the Core Lahob languages until then. "Imuniguronian" is the English adaptation of ''imúnigúronen'', the [[Cerian]] term (common to most Western languages) for "Chlouvānem".

===Ethnonyms===

It is notable how the vast majority of Lahob peoples have ethnonyms based on two single Proto-Lahob roots, which however are still present in some way in nearly all languages of the family, *ɬakʰober (people) and *wānəme (horde, tribe, group):

* *ɬakʰober as ethnonym for e.g. the Łohof, Łokow, Łogawe, Tɬow, Łoqɔ...; also reflexed as e.g. ''tɬawpe'' in Bɔni, ''tłɔwr'' in Waam (both "family"), or ''chlåmbhah'' (tribe) in Chlouvānem;

* *ɬakʰober as ethnonym for e.g. the Łaȟob, Łohof, Łokow, Łogawe, Tɬow, Łoqɔ...; also reflexed as e.g. ''tɬawpe'' in Bɔni, ''tłɔwr'' in Waam (both "family"), or ''chlåmbhah'' (tribe) in Chlouvānem;

* *wānəme as ethnonym for e.g. the Bɔni, Wonum, Waam, Bāmn, the ''-vānem'' part in Chlouvānem (''chlǣvānem'' originally meant "Golden Horde"), and the ''-wan'' in Minwan (''min wan'' meaning "our folk"); also reflected as e.g. ''wang'' (group) in Łohof-aðá and ''womme'' (village) in Tɬow.
