Eponyms are frequent in general English as well as in technical English, for instance diesel, macadam, algorythm, mansard. Eponyms are proper names that have become common nouns and rarely verbs. The analysis of eponyms leads us to the person with the discovery; therefore, most eponyms arise from the conceptual metonymies INVENTION IS INVENTOR, DISCOVERY IS DISCOVERER. The aim of this paper is to outline eponyms in general and technical English, and put forward ideas on how to use them in the latter. Eponyms enrich language for specific purposes by leading us to famous inventors and unveiling interesting stories behind significant inventions. In lessons, they introduce a topic on scientists and their inventions in an interesting way, which motivates students to study technical English.
