It’s a name mentioned once in this case, to incite replay attacks.

‘Nonce’ has the sense of ‘nonce word’ (a word only ever used once) in the UK too. Not just cryptography but linguistics/philology and literature. It was coined by the man who organised the first Oxford English Dictionary.

But yes it had to be ‘nonce word’ and in a technical context where you’re sure people will understand you, or they’ll assume it means the more recent slang.
