Fear of the unknown. That feeling you get when you’re faced with anything unfamiliar — not just people from other countries, but places, ideas, or situations that make you go “this isn’t right...” Usually shows up alongside things like nyctophobia (fear of the dark), where the real issue is uncertainty, not danger.
Not to be confused with xenophobia, which is more about hating or fearing foreigners.
Incognophobia is fear of any unknown — even if it’s just a job interview, a different vibe, or a blank map.
"My incognophobia is why I have so many trust issues."
"She won't travel outside the US — it's not hate, just incognophobia."

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
