anonymous
🕵️ 匿 hide + 名 name = a hidden name = anonymous
匿 (nì) means to conceal or hide; 名 (míng) means name. Together: a name that is hidden, i.e. anonymous. The 匸 component on 匿 is a covering radical, reinforcing the sense of something tucked out of sight.
名 — evening 夕 + mouth 口
A compound ideograph: in the dark of evening (夕), one cannot recognize others by sight, so the mouth (口) calls out a name to identify oneself. The original sense of 'name' broadened to include reputation, fame, and a measure word for people.
