In fact, I've just learned something: My Greek etymology was all wrong, onymous is correct, nonymous is nonsense.

I'd taken the "a" as the "not" (as in "atom"), when in fact the word being negated is "onoma", meaning "having a name".

I'd snarked early and ignorantly, thanks for pointing out my error.
