Going OT here, but being somewhat of a pedant when it comes to grammar
myself, I can't just let this go. :) What is wrong with this use of
"homonymous"? What would be an example of appropriate use?

The meaning of "homonym" is more narrow:
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/homonym
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/homonymous
But I think both work, so my mistake.
