I accidentally typed 'nomb' into Google image search
and got 459 results. I can't make out any connection between them though. Does anybody know what a 'nomb' is, and if so would you please educate me on the matter?

This seems a possiblity.
Though admittedly a somewhat disappointing solution to this mystery.

I'm not blaming you.
Although if I need a scapegoat later, I'll know who to accuse.

Isn't nombre 'number' in Spanish?
I remember a kids tv show called 'El Nombre' and he counted stuff in a Spanish accent.

'Nombre' means name.
'Numero' is number in Spanish.
Sorry, but thanks for trying!
