Nomen nescio Nomen nescio (), abbreviated to N.N., is used to signify an anonymous or unnamed person. From Latin "nomen", "name", and "nescio", "I do not know", it literally means "I do not know the name". The generic name Numerius Negidius used in Roman times was chosen partly because it shared initials with this phrase. One use for this name is to protect against retaliation when reporting a crime or company fraud. In the Netherlands, a police suspect who refuses to give his name is given an "N.N. number."
