You are thinking of :NONAME in the form
  :NONAME  ....  ;

Think of it as a constructor. e.g.

: hex:    \ -- xt
  :noname
  postpone base  postpone @  postpone >r
  postpone hex
;

: ;hex    \ --
  postpone r>  postpone base  postpone !
  postpone ;
;

The behaviour of :NONAME works very well in this situation.
