Morphology
distinctiveness = distinctive + distinctive (transparent) = distinct + ive + ness
Formed by adding the noun-forming suffix '-ness' to the familiar adjective 'distinctive', so the meaning is directly derived.
Etymology
Distinctiveness comes from distinct meaning 'clearly different', so imagine someone who stands out in a crowd. The ending -ness means 'state or quality', so distinctiveness is the 'quality of standing out'.
