Unfamous: adjective. As opposed to "famous" and "infamous," as the name indicates, unfamous is anything but famous. Despite the fact that this word exists, many prefer to incorrectly use the word "infamous" (something that is famous for bad reasons) to express the meaning of the word unfamous. The ignorance of these people is truly astounding, which is why our bloggers recommend them to write down at least ten times daily the following sentences:
"Infamous does not mean not famous. It means famous for bad things. The word I wish to use is unfamous. I pledge my allegiance to unfamousness."
As a side note, no one actually knows how to pronounce the word unfamous. Some prefer to say the "famous" part in it as it would be read alone by itself, while others prefer to read it like they would read "infamous," just with a "u" instead of an "i." It may be because of this dilemma that not many people use it.
