I don't have a drawing that I know has an anonymous block to test. Have you tried RENAME?
Edit: Looks like it should work https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Rename...

If you want to eliminate guessing on the part of those who reply, attach a .DWG of the "anonymous blocks". I'm guessing they are (rather were) CogoPoints and can be converted back in a second with the right tools.

Akbar,
Attached please find the Unanon.lsp which I got from >>>Here<<<. Command UnAnonall will change the names of your anonomous blocks to "TempXXX". Then you can edit them as normal blocks.

Akbar,
"...keep the attributes too?"
I don't know. Your Anonymous Blocks didn't have any Attributes to start with. I'd never even heard of an "Anonymous" Block until your post.

You can also solve it like this:
- select anonymous block, then right mouse button
- select "Copy Block Definition and Assign"
- select "no" in the next window
- In the next window you can rename your block
After This the block is like any other normal block and you can edit it in block editor.
