Morphology
unnamed = named (transparent) = un + name + ed
The productive negative prefix 'un-' is applied to the adjective 'named' to mean 'not named', which is directly inferable by learners.
Etymology
Unnamed is made from the negative prefix un- meaning 'not' and the word name, so it means 'not named' or 'without a name'. That's why an unnamed person or thing is one whose name is not given or is kept secret.
