How is 「何者でもなくなった」 translated?


I saw the meaning of the words individually, but when I've tried to join them
it doesn't make sense.  
何者 = who; what kind of person  
なくなった= lost




  * **何者** : "who", "what kind of person"
  * **で** : "to be", the te-form of the the copula だ
  * **も** : (Used between an interrogative and a negative expression, and adds a meaning of "(not) any" or "(not) at all". For example 何もない means "there is not anything.")
  * **なく** : "not", the continuative form of ない
  * **なった** : "resulted in", the past tense of なる meaning "to result in", "to became"

So the literal translation is "I (or she/you/etc) resulted in not being any
kind of person". More naturally, "I ended up being nobody" or "I became
nobody." While なくなる can mean "to be missing", this meaning is not relevant.

Context is missing, but this kind of phrase is usually used when someone was
once famous/popular/important but became forgotten/isolated/retired.
