I'm afraid I've only just now caught up with your charming post. It reminded me of humor writer Gene Weingarten's search for the Googlenope, which is a phrase (not just a word) found nowhere on Google, as well as the Googleyup, a phrase found just once on Google.

I'm afraid I've only just now caught up with your charming post. It reminded me of humor writer Gene Weingarten's search for the Googlenope, which is a phrase (not just a word) found nowhere on Google, as well as the Googleyup, a phrase found just once on Google.
Here's a link to an article he wrote on it for the Washington Post: https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/magazine/gene-weingarten-the-continuing-search-for-the-elusive-googlenope/2011/05/23/AGqf3BPH_story.html
Since the article dates back to 2011, the following examples from it are certainly no longer valid, but they give the idea:
Googleyup: "my pimp respects me"
Googlenope: "my gynecologist respects me"
Weingarten no longer writes for the Post, but I believe Googlenopes and -yups are still matters of deep interest to him. He also writes on Substack.
Best wishes.
