ομβρονησαίον

My comment:

From "ombros" and "nesos". The neutral adjective from "nesos" in Ancient Greek used to be "nesaion", so the neutral adjective to describe the new genus in your case, could be "ombronesaion" (pronounced /omvroni'seon/).

ομβρονήσωθεν

My comment:

this word does not exist, as you understand. I have just put the two words together and used the ending -θεν, which means from.
It is ancient Greek grammar, I assume this is what you wanted.
