That which we call a rose\/By any other name would smell as sweet.\u2019 (Juliet, from Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare). Shakespeare's implication is that a name is nothing but a word and it therefore represents a convention with no intrinsic meaning. Whilst this may be relevant to romantic literature, disease names do have real meanings, and consequences, in medicine. Hence, there must be a very good rationale for changing the name of a disease that has a centuries-old historical context. A working group of representatives from national and international endocrinology, nephrology and pediatric societies now proposes changing the name of \u2018diabetes insipidus\u2019 to \u2018arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP-D)\u2019 for central etiologies and \u2018arginine vasopressin resistance (AVP-R)\u2019 for nephrogenic etiologies. This editorial provides both the historical context and the rationale for this proposed name change.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1530\/eje-22-0751","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,14]],"date-time":"2022-10-14T00:31:42Z","timestamp":1665707502000},"page":"P1-P3","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1530\/crossmarkpolicy-7","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Changing the name of diabetes insipidus: a position statement of The Working Group for Renaming Diabetes Insipidus"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"187","author":[{"name":"The Working Group for Renaming Diabetes Insipidus","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hiroshi","family":"Arima","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Endocrinology and Diabetes, Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine , Nagoya, Aichi, Japan"},{"name":"Japan Endocrine Society"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Timothy","family":"Cheetham","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Paediatric Endocrinology, Newcastle University Faculty of Medical Sciences, Great North Children's Hospital, Royal Victoria Infirmary , Newcastle upon Tyne, UK"},{"name":"European Society for Pediatric Endocrinology"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6336-0965","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mirjam","family":"Christ-Crain","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism, University Hospital Basel, University of Basel , Switzerland"},{"name":"European Society of Endocrinology"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Deborah","family":"Cooper","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pituitary Foundation , Bristol, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5745-6832","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mark","family":"Gurnell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"European Society of Endocrinology"},{"name":"Wellcome-MRC Institute of Metabolic Science, University of Cambridge & Addenbrooke's Hospital , Cambridge Biomedical Campus, Cambridge, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Juliana B","family":"Drummond","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculdade de Medicina da UFMG, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais , Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil"},{"name":"Brazilian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Miles","family":"Levy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Endocrinology, University Hospitals of Leicester , Leicester, UK"},{"name":"Society for Endocrinology"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ann I","family":"McCormack","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hormones and Cancer Group, Garvan Institute of Medical Research , Sydney, New South Wales, Australia"},{"name":"Endocrine Society of Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joseph","family":"Verbalis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Endocrinology and Metabolism, Georgetown University Medical Center , Washington DC, District of Columbia, USA"},{"name":"Endocrine Society"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"John","family":"Newell-Price","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Endocrine Society"},{"name":"Department of Oncology and Metabolism, The Medical School, University of Sheffield , Sheffield, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"John A H","family":"Wass","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Endocrinology, Oxford Centre for Diabetes Endocrinology & Metabolism -
