The word "nameless" comes from the Old English word "namleas", which is derived from the combination of "nam" (meaning "name") and "leas" (meaning "without" or "lacking"). Together, they create the meaning "without a name" or "having no name". Over time, "namleas" evolved into "nameless" in the Middle English period, and has remained relatively unchanged since then.
