*snort*
While researching my genealogical files, I came across a name entered in another person's database as "Sine Nomine." Now, despite not knowing very much about this side of my family, I did know enough to realize that this is a very foreign-sounding name for mid-1800's Kentucky. So I googled it. Only to discover that it means "Name Unknown."
*giggle*
Okay, obviously I never took Latin. Still, I thought it was pretty funny.
