Nym

A term often used in mercenary circles to refer to an employer’s representative or a middleman when the employer wants to keep their actual identity hidden. This representative is "Mr. or Ms. Nym". The name has its origins in salarian language, a very common personal name that is used frequently as an alias for people involved in shady business. As salarians have dominated the market on secrecy and clandestine operations for hundreds of years, anyone going by the name ‘Nym’ is making a clear statement that they don’t want the clients to know their actual name.
