A textonym is a word which becomes ambiguous when using predictive text due to having the same button combination as other unrelated words. They often make a text confusing or incomprehensible.
Particularly prominent in drunk texting.
He = If
Me = Of
Book = Cool
Soon = Room
'Textonyms are so annoying, my drunken text makes no sense'

When using predictive text to write an SMS, sometimes an unexpected word of similar / humorous meaning may pop up.
Pint / shot / riot
Kiss / lips
Shag / rich
Sips / piss
Cock / anal
Dual / fuck
Oh no! I meant to send my boyfriend a text saying I wanted to suck his cock tonight.
Don't worry, it's just a textonym. Besides, I heard he's into that sort of thing.

In text or SMS messaging, a textonym is a word that is typed using the same sequence of keys on a phone's numeric keypad as another word.
Cow is a textonym of boy and any (typed using 2 6 and 9 on a phone).

Words that are related in their combination of button strokes, usually on a phone's number-pad and with T-9 or similar methods.
For example the number combination 4663 yields: home, gone, and good. Or 63 yields: of and me, these words would be textonyms of each other.

Two or more words that are spelled using the same series of keys in a text message.
"Me" and "of" are both entered using 6-3.
Also "good", "home", "gone", "hood", "hoof", and "goof" are textonyms.
My boyfriend was concerned when I texted him that I was nearly good. I explained that it was a textonym and I meant to say I was nearly home.
