I have only seen carente used as an adjective this way.
carente de nombre

You can also use (la) carencia as a noun, but may want to finish the idea with a complete clause.
Su carencia de nombre causó un lío.

Otherwise, a conjugated form of the verb carecer may be used.
Carece de nombre el muchacho.
Ha carecido de nombre desde el nacimiento.
Careció de nombre, porque no podía hablar ella cuando la encontramos.

I agree with Rusty.
The collocation is "carecer de (algo)".

- Esta calle siempre ha carecido de nombre.
- Nuestros políticos carecen de honestidad.
- ¿Te parece que carezco de simpatía?
