Crossword Genius

Not named, yet celebrated! (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

noted

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'celebrated' is the definition.
(I know that celebrated can be written as noted)

'not named' is the wordplay.
'named' becomes 'ed' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'not'+'ed'='NOTED'

'yet' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for noted that I've seen before include "Illustrious" , "Indicated" , "Renowned" , "saw" , "Gaiter; oyster spawn" .)
