Avec l'usage, il arrive que le nom de l'inventeur ou des inventeurs ne soit plus utilisé comme complément de nom, mais soit mis en apposition et se comporte, dès lors, comme un adjectif de relation. On parlera alors de «pince Adson-Brown» et non plus de «pince d'Adson-Brown». Les noms des inventeurs sont liés par un trait d'union. 4, record 1, French, - pince%20d%27Adson%2DBrown
