Just to add my suggestion: direct
Direct programming, no base register needed. Short and simple.

Subject: prize for a good replacement for "baseless"
In the future "baseless", always an ugly term embodying a dubious pun, will
need explanation. It will be as helpful as a description of a modern
automobile as "crankless".

How about IC-relative code? Where "IC" is short for "Instruction
Counter"? Or "IA-relative" for "Instruction Address Relative"? As
opposed to either GR-offset or GRI-offset code? Where "GR" is "General
Register" and GRI is "General Register + Index"? Why the "offset" either
being "short" (historic)

I can imagine to use the term "with base address" and "without a
base address" (or baseaddressless).
That long word is typical german- we have no problem creating new words
by concatenating multiple words like
Donaudampfschifffahrtsgesellschaftskapitänspatent

What about "freebase". You are in essence freeing up base registers.
Then you can tell people at cocktail parties that you are freebasing at the
office all day long.

I think we are looking at it wrong. The old style should be called
'register based programming' and baseless style as nothing special.
