Morphology

untitled = titled (transparent) = un + title + ed

Negation of 'titled' in the sense 'having a name/title assigned' is clear and uses productive morphology.

Etymology

Untitled comes from the small part un- meaning 'not' and title meaning 'a name or label', the same title you see on a book or painting. So an untitled work is simply 'not given a title', which is why artists or writers sometimes leave a piece without a name.
