unrenowned

/ˌʌnɹᵻnˈaʊnd/ adj

Not renowned.

Word Origin 'Renown' from Old French 'renomer' — to make famous, from Latin 're-' again + 'nominare' to name. Unrenowned means not named again, not famous. The root nomen gives us nominal, nominate, ignominy (loss of name), and misnomer. So unrenowned is literally unnamed.
