    “Anaesia” may have Igbo origins, but it sounds too Latinate. If one had to guess what it meant, a reasonable first guess would be the condition of not having a nose, or believing oneself to not have one.

    Having said that, the idea is not without merit. See also: decolonised names like Aotearoa (New Zealand), Uluru (Ayers Rock) and Turtle Island (what some call North America).
