The word "noone" is a misspelling of "noon", which refers to the middle of the day or the time when the sun is at its highest point in the sky. It can also be used more broadly to indicate "midday" or "midpoint". The etymology of the word "noon" traces back to the Old English word "non" or "nōn", which was derived from the Latin word "nona" meaning "ninth".
