non-entity
Someone without importance
A non-entity is a person or thing of no importance or significance—someone who barely registers, who might as well not exist.
The term suggests insignificance so complete that the person lacks real presence: He was treated as a non-entity at the meeting.
Less commonly, a non-entity is something that doesn't exist at all.
