The Talmic family was referred to as the "''Cēm'' languages" (Skellan: ''brits Ceem'') in earlier Talman works, after the Thensarian word ''cēm'' for "one" inherited in all known Talmic languages at the time. After the discovery of other Quihum languages such as [[Naquian]], the definition expanded to other Quihum languages, until Proto-Quihum was reconstructed with more accuracy and the family was renamed Quihum (Skellan: ''brits Cłillym'' or ''hølltu Cłillym''). The designation ''Talmic'' (Skellan: ''Talmiv'') is now applied to the branch, after the name of the Talma region where most of the Talmic languages are native to.
