CONCLUSION

To sum up, Antonomasia provides characters with more exciting names and nicknames which reflect certain characteristics, feats, or professions. Although we witness serious and royal antonomasia less often these days, we still use antonomasia in the form of nicknames on a daily basis

As for Similes,they are a powerful and creative form of description that uses comparison to evoke images or symbols of whatever you are trying to describe. The simile can make a woman’s smile beautiful by comparing it to a rose, or it can make her sly by comparing her to a fox. Similes use comparison to create connections between very different things, creating strong feelings and images.
